Information on missed garden waste collections will be available on our missed bins page.
Report a missed garden waste bin
We will not return for bins which are:
- contaminated
- overweight
- overfull
- not out by 7am on collection day
Bins which are not displaying a valid sticker will not be collected.
No refunds will be given for missed collections.
Report your missed bin within two working days of the scheduled collection. We can't return to collect it if you report it any later.
We will return for it within two working days in towns and three working days in rural areas of reporting.
In severe weather, or other reasons out with the Councils control, we will do our best to return for missed collections, but this may not be until the next scheduled delivery day.
In cold weather garden waste can become frozen – we will try to return for bins. If this is not possible or the waste remains frozen on our return visit, we will return on the next collection day.
As the service stops over the winter, it may be necessary to keep garden waste in your green bin during this time – this will not cause smells nor attract pests.
