Garden waste subscription
New customers
We can collect garden waste from your home on an optional, paid-for basis in addition to your normal rubbish collection and recycling collections.
We collect garden waste in wheelie bins or bags that we supply. The wheelie bins and the bags are green. The waste is composted and recycled into environmentally-friendly soil improver.
Further details about the collection itself are on the garden waste collection page.
A fortnightly garden waste collection subscription costs £65.99 per bin or bags, per year and is subject to terms and conditions.
A new subscription made part way through the subscription period reduces in cost as follows:
- £55.99 from 1 July 2025
- £45.99 from 1 October 2025
A mid-year subscription would need to be renewed in March just like a full-year subscription.
How the subscription works
New subscribers receive one 240-litre green wheelie bin or three reusable green waste bags. Bags are supplied when we identify the property as being unsuitable for wheelie bins.
The service costs £65.99 for a year for 25 fortnightly collections of one bin or council-supplied bags. The cost reduces on a pro-rata basis for new subscriptions starting from 1 July 2025 and 1 October 2025. You can have an additional bin for your property for an additional subscription fee.
The service runs from 1 April until 31 March each year, apart from two weeks over Christmas.
We deliver your bin or bags within 20 working days of receiving your payment. Your first collection happens on your first collection day after receiving your bin or bags.
Payment options
You can pay online by credit or debit card.
Your right to cancel
You have 14 days to cancel the service for any reason without incurring any cost. This period starts on the date we accept your order. If you cancel within this period, we will reimburse the payment we’ve received from you.
To cancel, use the garden waste enquiry form.
