Garden waste 2026 600 x 475

If you’d like your garden waste bin(s) emptied fortnightly during 2026, you’ll need to subscribe to our garden waste service.

The service costs £42.50 per bin for 2026, covering up to 23 fortnightly collections from late January/early February to mid-December, regardless of when you sign up.

Sign up by direct debit

Keep your garden waste collections running smoothly without the hassle of reapplying each year.

When you pay by direct debit, your subscription renews automatically, so you can enjoy a seamless service year after year.

To set up a direct debit, you’ll need to register for a MyAccount (if you don’t already have one).

It’s quick and easy just have your name, email address, postal address, and bank details (account number and sort code) ready. Once set up, you can easily manage your direct debit through your MyAccount.

Important: When you sign up for a direct debit, your initial payment of £42.50 will be collected within 10 working days and your sticker will be sent within 20 working days.

Following this, your next annual recurring payment will be collected in November 2026 and we'll write to you to let you know if the subscription charge increases.
