Currently you are not able to dispose of kitchen waste (e.g. vegetable peelings etc.) in the brown bin.

Any additional garden waste placed alongside the brown bin will not be collected. Please be careful not to fill the bin so it is too heavy to move. Please do NOT put BBQ coals in the the brown bin. This will not be taken and you will be charged for its disposal.
