Lyneham's day-to-day domestic waste is collected by Wiltshire Council Cleansing and Amenities Team primarily every Wednesday and Thursday.

Wiltshire Council are very proactive to ensure 'Recycling and Waste Minimisation' is a high priority among the community.

The recycling education will hopefully grow and it is envisaged that more and more people will actively recycle more of their waste products in the near future and continue to help the environment.

Garden Waste and the Brown Bins

Gardeners across North Wiltshire can recycle their green waste with the help of a brown wheeled bin.
The brown bins provide the perfect solution to the quantities of garden waste that are produced in the home. The bins are available for just £25 a year and are emptied every two weeks and the contents turned into compost.

Anyone in North Wiltshire can register their interest to join the scheme but it will only be introduced in areas when there is sufficient demand.

Recycling garden waste not only helps reduce the amount of waste being buried in landfill sites, but also produces rich, nutritious compost for use in gardens, parks and even on football pitches and golf courses to produce top quality results.

Garden waste is collected every fortnight and turned into compost at the Household Recycling Centre at Compton Bassett. The ‘Warrior Compost’ is a medium grade particle size organic peat-free compost and can be bought at all the Household Recycling centres.

To register an interest to join the scheme, contact the Recycling Hotline on 01249 706693.

If you would rather compost at home and convert your garden and kitchen waste into compost, you can purchase a subsidised home composting bin. To find out how and to get more information visit: www.recyclenow.com
