From January 2024, if you would like Cheshire East Council to continue collecting your garden bin, you will need to be signed up to the new garden waste recycling scheme.
You will be able to apply for a subscription from the week commencing 2 October 2023.
By opting-in to the service, you can continue using your garden bin to recycle your garden waste and will pay an annual subscription fee of £56 for it to be collected.
Your garden waste will be taken away to a state-of-the-art facility, in Crewe, where it will be turned into compost for use in agriculture and horticulture.
There is lots of information, and answers to frequently asked questions, on the Cheshire East Council website at https://www.cheshireeast.gov.uk/waste_and_recycling/bins/garden-bin-subscription.aspx
Residents will also receive a leaflet in the post providing information about the new scheme. You can also view the leaflet electronically.
