Apply for a green bin collection service

Sign up for the green bin collection service


The service currently costs £45 per bin, per year, and runs from February to January.

How the service works

  • Apply for the green bin collection service and we will issue you with a sticker for your existing green lid bin
  • You will receive your sticker within 10 working days
  • Stick it to the body of your bin, at the rear, below the handle
  • This sticker will be unique to you and will match our records
  • We will only empty green bins that display a sticker
  • If the property does not already have a green lidded bin, a new one will need to be purchased when applying for the green bin collection service
  • If you move, you must inform the Council so we can update our records. If moving within the Borough and a green bin does not exist at the new property, take your bin with you and inform the Council of your new address so that a new permit can be sent to you at the new address.
