No. You cannot put garden waste in your general waste bin.
You must check with your local council for the correct disposal method, as most councils do not accept it in general waste bins, and it should not be placed in your recycling bin.
Some councils offer a paid-for, dedicated garden waste bin and collection service, while other councils provide Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) where you can take your green waste.
Yes – you do need paperwork. It’s the law!
When disposing of any waste with Yes Waste, there needs to be a waste consignment note to confirm that the transfer of the waste is legal and responsible
When you contact us, we’ll ask for the type of garden waste you need collecting, the amount, and where in Burnley it is located. From there, we’ll provide you with a clear fixed-price quote, so you know exactly what the cost will be.
Once you confirm, we’ll arrange a convenient time slot for collection. On the agreed day, our two-person team will load and remove the waste, making sure you receive a waste transfer note for your records.
After collection, all garden waste is delivered to a licensed recycling facility where it is shredded, treated, and converted into compost and soil improvers that are used by local authorities and landscapers.
