YOU can still buy a green waste licence to enable your waste to be collected until November.
The new green waste collection, which costs £33 (or £30) per household, started in March and 38,000 households have bought a licence.
Cllr Judith Guthrie, executive board member for the environment, said: “We are very pleased with how well the green waste service has been received and by how many people have taken up the offer.
“If you need the service for this year you can still sign up and your green bins will be emptied every fortnight.”
The council would also advise residents to check carefully what they can and cannot put in their green and blue bins.
Currently it costs a significant amount of money to dispose of lorry loads of blue bin waste that have been contaminated with the wrong items – or simply because tins or jars haven’t been rinsed before being put in the blue bin.
