Order new or replacement bin
Properties receiving the standard collection service are provided with the following containers:
- 1 x 180L residual waste bin
- 2 x 180L recycling bins
- 1 x 23L food waste bin

Only one domestic residual waste bin is issued per household.
From May 2025, we offer a bin repair service. This cost-effective service helps extend the lifespan of existing bins and reduce waste.
Replacement parts, repairs and additional/replacement bins are available for a fee. Residents who receive 100% Council Tax Reduction may be eligible for a discounted charge.
Replacement parts
Repairs can be made to the lid, pins, wheels, and axel of a bin for a charge of £15 with a discounted rate of £10 available for those receiving full Council Tax reduction.
Please note: all repairs are carried out by trained staff members. If our staff are unable to repair your bin we will let you know.
In this case your payment will be deducted from the price of a new bin.
Waste and recycling bins and boxes
There is a charge for bins and boxes for the recycling and waste collection service.
If you are in receipt of full Council Tax reduction when making a payment, you will be entitled to a £10 discount for replacement or additional bins and £5 discount on charges for boxes.
You must provide your Council Tax reference number or upload a copy of your Council Tax bill as evidence to get the reduced price.
