Kerbside garden waste collections will be collected monthly from October 4

28/09/22

As we move into autumn, kerbside garden waste collections will be collected monthly from October 4thuntil November 25thgiving residents two further green waste collections from their home before the service is suspended during December, January and February.

 

Figures show that the amount of garden waste collected from residents' homes reduces by 80% over the winter season. With this significant reduction, waste collection crews will focus on the collection of food waste, black bag waste and recycling which significantly increases as we approach the Christmas season, as people spend more time at home.

 

One-off collections will be arranged over the festive season to remove Christmas trees from residents' homes, with community big sweep events and the leaf fall street cleansing team continuing to operate over the winter months.

 

Throughout the winter, residents can continue to bring their garden waste to either recycling centre at Lamby Way or Bessemer Close by booking an appointment online through the following link:  https://www.cardiff.gov.uk/ENG/resident/Rubbish-and-recycling/recycling-centres/Pages/default.aspx  or via the Cardiff Gov App.

 

Collection calendars on the council's website and the Cardiff Gov App are being updated and the council would like to thank residents for their patience while this takes place.
