2023/24 service
The Garden Waste Collection Service runs from 1 September to 31 August each year.
You can buy up to two permits for £30. If you need a third permit you can buy one for an extra £30. No refunds will be issued.
We are currently experiencing some technical issues with payments for garden waste permits with some internet browsers. If you are unable to complete your transaction, please try opening the page in a different browser. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
If you don’t want to buy a permit for your brown bin, you can home compost or take your garden waste to a Household Waste and Recycling Centre for free.
Remember, you should still recycle your food waste in your brown bin even if you don’t have a permit.
What happens next
Your permit will be sent to your home within 21 days of ordering. When you receive it, you should stick it to your bin before putting it out for collection.
If possible, please attach the new permit directly to the surface of your brown bin and don’t stick it over the top of last year’s as it may not stick as well. Follow the instructions on the reverse of the permit which show you how and where to attach it. The permit is durable, tamper proof and will have your address on it.
