Garden waste collection scheme reminder

1:00pm Tuesday 19th February 2013 in Cornwall

With Spring fast approaching and thoughts turning to gardening, Cornwall Council is reminding residents to renew their subscription or register for the garden waste collection scheme.

The service is a fortnightly kerbside collection for grass cuttings, leaves, tree prunings and dead flowers and plants. Simply gather up the clippings and prunings, place them in the brown wheelie bin or sack, with the permit attached, and it will be taken away and composted.

People who bought a bin or sack last year will only need to renew the permit. New subscribers will need to purchase both the container and the permit.

The new subscription year starts from 1 April, so to guarantee receiving everything before the first collection, please contact us before 28 February 2013 on 0300 1234 141 or visit www.cornwall.gov.uk/gardenwaste.
