Green Community

From 1st January 2024

• All households with bin collection are entitled to a brown bin
• Contact your Waste Collector and request a brown bin service in 2024

What happens to the food and garden waste from a brown bin?

It is sent for composting or anaerobic digestion (AD). Anaerobic digestion processes food waste into a bio-gas , which in turn is used to generate electricity.
