A to Z

Each property is entitled to receive a Brown bin in which residents can collect food and garden waste. This is collected on a fortnightly basis and may or may not be collected on the same day as the blue recycling wheelie bin. 

Brown bins that are found to have prohibited items in them/lids up/too heavy/left with side waste will be tagged with a red tag which will contain a brief explanation of why the bin has been left unemptied. Residents will need to rectify the situation before the bin is next due to be emptied.

For further information on our garden waste service please go to our information on Rubbish, Waste and Recycling page. Alternatively, you can follow this link to Cannock Chase Council's page on Brown bins.
