Garden waste collection

To have garden waste collected from your property as a Southampton resident you can subscribe to the annual household garden waste collection service.

For a yearly subscription fee, you will receive a 240 litre wheeled bin (or sacks for qualifying properties) for your garden waste that will be collected every fortnight, with a two week break over Christmas and New Year.

The service runs from 1 April until 31 March the following year, regardless of when you signed up.

The last day to subscribe to the 2025-26 service will be Monday 30 June 2025.

The garden waste collection service is a convenient and cost-effective way of disposing of your green waste.

  • Multiple ways to sign up and pay
  • The wheeled bin makes it easy to move from your garden to the point of collection
  • Collection is good for the environment with your garden waste turned into compost.
