Brown bin subscriptions purchased last year expire today
29/02/2024
A new garden waste subscription will be needed from tomorrow
Anyone who purchased the garden waste bin collection service from Cherwell District Council last year won’t have their bin collected after today unless they renew their subscription.
Brown bin licences expire annually on the last day of February.
As mother nature springs back into life after the winter anyone who wishes to use the fortnightly garden waste service is urged to buy a subscription for the coming twelve months.
This year’s fee is £49 per brown bin – and increase of £6 from last year. The loss of an early-bird discount means that for some the cost will rise by £8.
Licences cover a fixed period of March 1, 2024 to February 28, 2025 regardless of when they are purchased.
Councillor Andrew McHugh, Portfolio Holder for Cleaner and Greener Communities, said: “As we begin to see the return of clearer weather, many will be starting to get out into their gardens and making the most of the crisp air and longer days.
“I know that being more climate aware and taking proactive steps to reducing their carbon footprint is becoming more and more important to people, and our garden waste service is a reliable and cost-effective way to dispose of garden clippings in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way.”
