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

The current subscription expires on Monday 31 March so you’ll have to subscribe if you’d like to still have 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.

Those who don’t renew will automatically stop receiving collections after Monday 31 March.

New customer? You can sign up at any point between now and December, but the earlier you join, the more collections you’ll get.

It costs £70 for each garden waste bin, with a maximum of two per household. Those unable to have garden waste bins can pay the same £70 for three garden waste sacks. Households can have a maximum of six sacks. 

The annual charge for the service has increased this year to cover the rising cost to deliver collections.

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

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

The new garden waste subscription service runs from Monday 1 April 2026 to Monday 31 March 2027.
