Brown Bin Subscribers Can Have Extra Garden Waste Collected this Autumn

Residents who are subscribed to the South Oxfordshire District Council brown bin garden waste service can have extra garden waste collected for free, on their normal collection day only, between 28 October and 8 November.

A maximum of up to four additional sacks of garden waste can be put out per brown bin subscription, next to your brown bin. 

To be eligible for collection – the extra waste must contain only natural garden waste, such as cut grass, plants or branches and be placed in standard sized (60L) black refuse-style sacks or in boxes/containers totalling no more than a standard bin full.
 
All the garden waste collected will be taken to a facility near Wallingford where it is composted. The compost will then be sold on to local farmers for use on their farmland.
