Cheshire East Council garden waste scheme opens for renewals and new subscribers
Subscriptions to renew or sign up for the first time to Cheshire East Council's Garden Waste Recycling Scheme are now open.
Residents will need to opt-in to the scheme to use their garden bin to recycle their green waste and will pay an annual subscription fee for their bin to be collected.
If you are already signed up to the council's Garden Waste Recycling Scheme, you will need to renew your subscription. Subscriptions are £59 per garden bin per year, with a 25 per cent reduction in the fee available for those receiving qualifying benefits.
Once subscribed, residents will be sent a welcome pack containing their subscription sticker, which will have their address and unique subscription number on it.
Residents are urged to attach the new coloured sticker to the back of their garden bin as soon as they receive it, but not obscuring any current subscription sticker, as garden bins without a valid sticker displaying will not be emptied.
Providing that their email address is still the same, residents who subscribed to the service last year will receive a reminder email, enabling them to simply click the link to renew.
"I would like to thank everyone who has already signed up and remind them that they will need to renew their subscription to continue to enjoy an unbroken service. I'd recommend doing it now to enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that it's all in hand.
"At the new price it still represents excellent value and I hope that residents understand that the very slight increase is needed to help the council address the gap in its finances."
To join the garden waste subscription scheme or to renew your current subscription, please visit the website: garden bin subscriptions.
Residents not able to sign up online can contact the council on 0300 123 5011.
