How much does your Green Waste Collection cost?

It used to be free but when the separate weekly collection of food waste started this year the council (Oxfordshire) introduced a charge for the collection of garden waste. We pay £60 annually per brown bin and it is collected fortnightly on the same day as the recycling bin. When you subscribe to the scheme you are given a sticker to put on your bin so the collection crew know who has paid.

In Wiltshire we have a fortnightly collection of green waste. Currently it cost £50 a year but has gone up from July to £60 a year.

£60 p.a. Bin included. Collection two-weekly, monthly in the winter.

No extra charge by our local authority, two large green canvas bags giving free but extra bags can be purchased, collected 2, weekly, same as black bin, recycling and food waste collected weekly. Our daughter who lives in another council area is having to purchase her black bags for general waste ( no bins) from 1st July. I sometimes think that people don't realise how luck we are in our area as everything is provided free.

Fortnightly free collections from March until October. We buy our own bags now.

They tried a paid service (where you 'buy' thin compostable bags) but very few people used it - and the bags split and emptied all over the roads/pavements. People were just dumping their garden waste in the woods and vital main roads/roundabouts were blocked by all the weekend trips/queues to the dump. A complete disaster - so hastily we reverted to the previous scheme!

Free weekly collections of green waste, and free green waste bags available from libraries, council offices and a few other places here in S E Essex

£30 pa collected Feb -Nov incl.

£75 pa supposedly collected fortnightly but this rarely happens. No pick up I think it is November - March.

Green bin, £60 a year, IIRC, not that we have one - ours all goes to the tip. And we live in one of the highest CT areas in the country - if not the highest.
Collected once a week.

They used to sell green bags at the libraries - £1.50 for 2, or £1 for over 60s. A much better system IMO, especially in autumn, when you might well need a lot for leaves.

Included with Council tax here. They collect 4 largish bags every 2 weeks. Our tax is high though.

Free garden waste collection every fortnight and food bin collected weekly.

£70 with fortnightly collections, not during winter.
green wheelie bin. which everyone has, to match the others for general waste and recycling, as the green waste used to be free, like the other two.

£37 for all year collection once a fortnight.

Fortnightly collection of huge green wheelie bin from February to November. Cost is included in the council tax. I only use it for grass cuttings because I compost pretty much everything else.

£65 for a year collected fortnightly throughout gardening season and less often throughout winter.

£54 fortnightly collection throughout the year, also take our Christmas tree which obviously is far too large for the bin !

Our garden waste is collected fortnightly throughout the year. It costs £45 per green wheelie bin, you can have as many bins as you want and pay for.

Green wheelie bin collected fortnightly except in Winter for free here.
At previous house - last year - £52 for fortnightly collection all year round.

Out here in the wilds of Scotland there is no garden waste collection.. We’ve got 2 compost bins which are currently rammed, a big pile of clippings in the bottom corner of the garden and the last lot got lobbed over the fence into the bracken filled no man’s land behind us.

Brown wheelie bin collected every two weeks no extra charge ,its part of council services. I'm in the West of Scotland
