We will only collect garden and food waste contained within the council issued green bin with the lid firmly shut.
We will not take away additional waste left anywhere around or on top of the bin.
Additional green bins are available to properties which are on the wheeled bin collection service for a one off charge of £30, which includes delivery.
This can be done by phoning the Sort-It team on 01926 456339 and paying over the phone with a debit or credit card between 8am - 7pm Monday - Thursday, 8am - 6pm on Friday and 9am - 1pm on Saturday. Alternatively, please visit one of the Warwickshire Direct Offices.
The waste from your green bin will be going to an in-vessel composting facility that can safely compost raw and cooked food.
