Garden Waste or Organic Waste
Where to dispose;
Grass clippings, small branches, twigs, leaves, flowers and prunings can be placed in the council provided green waste bin (Green lid).
Larger tree branches and stumps that are thicker than 15 cm in diameter and over 60 cm in length cannot go in the green waste bin.
All green waste including tree branches and stumps can also be dropped off at the Resource Recovery Centre for a fee.
Environmental weeds such as Agapanthus heads, fireweed and blackberries can be placed in the Organic waste bin (Green bin).
Green waste is collected and processed by partner organisations. It is shredded and pasteurised to create a soil conditioner or mulch. Soil conditioner can be purchased from the Resource Recovery Centre. Please double check with staff whether soil conditioner is available before heading to the RRC.
