Barnet residents can now sign up and pay for the 2024-2025 garden waste service for garden waste bin collections.

The year starts from early May 2024. Residents must sign up by 14th April to receive a full year of collections.

The cost is £97 for the fortnightly collection of one bin for the year, and £69.29 for each additional bin.

Those in income band 1 for Council Tax Support (no earned income) at the time of signing up may be entitled to a £27 rebate for their first bin, and £19.29 for each additional bin.

All details, including ways to sign up and pay, can be found at the Barnet Council website: https://www.barnet.gov.uk/gardenwaste
