What you can put in your Black Box and Blue Bin has changed. Under the new system: glass and textiles would still go in the black box. Anything else recyclable could go in the Blue lidded bin. Examples of items that can go in the blue lidded bin are plastic bottles, pots, tubs, trays, cardboard boxes, food and drink cartons, paper, food and drink cans, aerosols and foil.

Further details of the bulky household waste collection.

Green Bins:

There is a charge of £70 for the collection of garden waste from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025.

Bins will be emptied fortnightly, except for two weeks over the Christmas and New Year holiday period.

Existing customers If you already a garden waste customer, Wiltshire Council will contact you in mid-May regarding renewing your collections for 1 July 2024 - 30 June 2025. This will be using the email address provided, where they have one.

Details of the renewal process

Not an existing customer?

You can sign up for the service at any point. If you wish to sign up part-way through the year, you will pay on a quarterly, pro-rata basis. See information below. If you would like to sign up, call Witshire Council on 0300 456 0103

Once you have renewed your subscription, you will now no longer receive a garden waste sticker. This is because waste crews use in-vehicle technology to identify which households have subscribed to have their garden waste collected. Please ensure your garden bin is identifiable by putting your house number on it. You are welcome to paint your house number on the bin should you wish or, if you have one, you can leave the previous bin sticker displayed and where you can add your house name or number. Numbers should be clearly displayed on the back of the bin, and bins should be presented for collection with the handle facing outwards as this makes it easier for the collection crews.

New Customers

There are two ways you can sign up and pay for the service:

Securely online by debit or credit card using www.wiltshire.gov.uk/gardenwaste NB American Express cards are not accepted,

Over the phone by calling 0300 456 0103
