Garden waste
We are experiencing staff shortages due to covid-19 and the national driver shortage. To allow us to maintain essential waste and recycling services, garden waste collections, including garden sacks, are suspended. We expect to provide further updates in October.
If you are a garden waste subscriber you will have received a letter in early July informing you of this and providing a link to a subscribers-only webpage and related password. This page includes the options available to you.
