This Technical Note will be published on the Council’s website following circulation to Members. Its contents may be disclosed or shared out with the Council.
The purpose of this Technical Note is to advise Members that Garden Waste Permits for the 2025 season are now available online to purchase
Residents will need to purchase and display a garden waste permit on their green bin otherwise their bin will not be emptied
There will be a single annual charge of £50 per green bin, which will entitle the household to 19 fortnightly collections from March to November
Households can buy more than one permit
Permits can be applied for online, visit the Garden waste collection page
It takes up to 14 days for a permit to arrive, so residents are encouraged to complete the form as soon as possible to ensure their green bin is collected from the start of the season
Residents who choose not to apply for a permit, can continue to dispose of garden waste at Mavis Valley Recycling Centre free of charge
A full communications plan will launch on 12 February 2025 and will continue until after the garden waste service begins in March, using a variety of online and offline communications methods to inform residents.
