National coronavirus restrictions will remain in place until Wednesday 2 December
From 2 December, Warrington will become a tier 2 ‘high alert’ level area. More information can be viewed on the government's website.
Visit our coronavirus pages for more information about what the current national restrictions mean for Warrington.
We offer a green bin collection service for grass, flowers, plants, leaves, clippings, cuttings, weeds and other garden waste.
This year's annual subscription is now closed. Subscription will re-open in January 2021.
Subscription prices for 2021 will confirmed shortly. The price is the same even if you sign up part-way through the subscription year.
You’ll need to tell us:
If you don’t already have a green bin, or you want any extra green bins (you can have as many as you like as long as you have subscriptions for each), you can order these at the same time. New green bins costs for 2021 will be confirmed very soon. When costs are confirmed, you’ll need to pay up front with a debit or credit card when you apply online.
Please read the terms and conditions for garden waste collections
When you subscribe, we’ll send you a sticker in the post. The sticker can take up to 14 days to arrive. Please attach the sticker under the handles at the back of the bin.
If you move house part way through the subscription year, you can transfer the subscription
you can do this online once you have been subscribed for seven days.
Do not take your green bin(s) to your new property when you move.
If you move out of Warrington, you can’t transfer your subscription. We can’t refund you if you move house and no longer want a green bin collection, or if your new house has fewer green bins than your old house.
You can cancel your subscription at any time, but we won’t refund unless you cancel within 7 days of the date you subscribed. After this 7 day period, refunds will not be given.
No problem. You can take your garden waste to one of our community recycling centres or you could try composting.
Please don’t put garden waste in your black bin
This waste needs to be put in your green bin so it can be recycled or composted. We won’t empty black bins with garden waste in them.
Local councils don’t have to offer a kerbside collection service for garden waste. A few years ago we had more money coming from the government into our revenue budget, and we could pay for garden waste collections. Now, there isn’t enough money.
So instead of shutting down the service completely we still offer it to those who want it, for a small fee.
