Now is the time to renew your garden waste subscription if you’d like it to be collected from the kerbside for another year.

The current subscription expires on Monday 31 March so you’ll have to sign up again if you’d like to continue having it collected until the end of March next year.

The easiest way to do this is on our website.

If you know someone who can’t renew online, we’re asking that friends or relatives help them or they can use computers for free in any of our libraries.

If you choose not to renew, you’ll automatically stop receiving collections from Monday 31 March.

New customers can sign up at any point between now and November but the earlier you join, the more collections you’ll get for your money.

It costs £65 for each garden waste bin, with a maximum of two per household.

Those unable to have garden waste bins can pay the same £65 for three garden waste sacks, with a maximum of six sacks per household.

Once you have subscribed, you should receive your permit through the post within 15 working days.

Subscriptions are subsidised for the most financially vulnerable households, which is automatically applied at sign-up or renewal.

The new garden waste subscription service runs from Monday 1 April 2025 to Monday 31 March 2026. 

Check all your waste and recycling collection dates on our website.
