Green bin

Bookings open for winter green bin collection service

People can now book six extra fortnightly green waste collections between November and March.

The paid-for service returns, with the extra collections available for just £30 at www.dudley.gov.uk/chargeable-garden-waste.

They will start after the usual free fortnightly collections – which run from spring to autumn – finish.

The additional paid-for collections will continue to be made fortnightly.

Bins will be emptied on the usual collection day, with the six extra collections taking place between November and March next year.

Councillor Damian Corfield, cabinet member for highways and environmental services, said:

“Winter is just around the corner now, and we are delighted to again be able to offer residents this extended opportunity to secure six additional fortnightly collections throughout winter.

“They will suit residents who enjoy gardening throughout the year, providing them with a convenient way to dispose of their garden waste.

“As previously stated, we will continue to provide our free 32-week collection service irrespective of whether people opt in for these extra collections or not.”

The extra collections are also available to residents who have an additional brown-lidded garden bin.

More detail about the additional waste collection service, including a number of FAQs, is available at www.dudley.gov.uk/chargeable-garden-waste.
