Good to know
Some local councils provide a special bin or bag for your garden waste and collect it as part of their household collection scheme. Check with your local council to find out if they operate a free or chargeable garden waste collection service.
If your bin is full, you can recycle garden waste at your local household waste recycling centres.
How to recycle garden waste
If your local council provide a bin or bag for garden waste, make sure you follow any special instructions for what can and can't be included;
If you're taking your garden waste to your local recycling centre, use a strong, durable bag (not a black bin liner) & try not to overfill it. That way it's less likely to tear & once it's been emptied, you can take it back home, ready to use next time.
