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.
