Garden waste subscription
New customers
You can choose to have your garden waste collected for an annual fee. This service is optional and sits alongside your rubbish and recycling collections.
We collect garden waste using green wheelie bins or reusable green bags that we provide. All garden waste is composted and recycled into environmentally friendly soil improver.
Once you have subscribed, you can find more information about collection days and what you can put in your bin on the garden waste collections page.
Cost of the subscription
A fortnightly garden waste collection costs £68.50 per year for one bin or council supplied bags. The price is per bin or set of bags and is subject to the subscription terms and conditions.
If you start a new subscription part way through the year, the cost is reduced:
- £58.50 for subscriptions starting from 1 July 2026
- £48.50 for subscriptions starting from 1 October 2026
All subscriptions, including those started mid year, run until 31 March and must be renewed each April.
Subscribe for a garden waste collection
How the subscription works
When you subscribe, you will receive either one 240 litre green wheelie bin, or three reusable green garden waste bags. We will supply bags where a wheelie bin cannot be used safely or stored properly at your property.
Your annual subscription includes 25 fortnightly collections.
You can request an additional bin after 1 April if you need more capacity. Each extra bin requires its own subscription.
The service runs from 1 April to 31 March, with no collections for two weeks over Christmas.
We aim to deliver your wheelie bin or bags within 20 working days of receiving payment.
Please note: Your first collection will take place on your next scheduled garden waste collection day after delivery of your bin or bags.
Payment options
You can pay online using a credit or debit card.
Cancelling your subscription
You have the right to cancel within 14 days of us accepting your order, for any reason and at no cost. If you cancel during this period, we will refund any payment you have made.
To cancel your subscription, use the garden waste enquiry form.
