All
residential premises (including units) are provided with 13 green
waste services per year.
Materials for the green waste collection must be contained in a
designated Green Waste bin or presented as per the guidelines below

The garden waste bins remain the property of the resident. Any bin maintenance occurring as a result of wear and tear are borne by the resident as are the implications of lost or missing bins.
