Garden waste permit delivery
If you are a council tenant and are still waiting on your permit being delivered, please contact your local housing office.
If you have ordered a garden waste permit, it is on the way. Please do not present your brown bin without a permit if it contains a garden waste, as the crew will not empty it.
There is a charge for the collection of garden waste from your brown bin. If you want to place garden waste into your brown bin you should request a garden waste permit and display it on your brown bin.
If you have more than one bin each individual bin will require a permit to be purchased and displayed on the bin to ensure that it is collected.

The annual charge will be £40 and the permit will be valid from 1 June 2025 until 31 May 2026.
If you are a council housing tenant, you do not need to apply as the service is paid for through your rent and you will automatically receive a permit before 1 June.
Please read the frequently asked questions and terms and conditions.
We are one of the last councils in Scotland to introduce this charge, and the money generated will help cover the costs of delivering the service.
You will need a MyAccount to submit a permit request. Please ensure you set this up in advance to enable you to order a permit. Delivery can take up to 21 days so please order early to ensure your permit arrives before 1 June.
