Brown Bin 2025 - Sign up to Garden Waste Collection

You can now order your Garden Waste permit(s) for 2025.

The charge to have your garden waste collected in 2025 will remain at £42 per brown bin.

Would you like to know what happens to the contents of your bins once they have been collected? Then please take a look at Where Does it Go, which shows the destinations of the recycling and waste collected in Stafford Borough.

You can check your collection dates online www.staffordbc.gov.uk/collectiondays.

Your wheeled bins must be ready by 7am on collection day and placed at your nearest collection point at the boundary of your property. Please ensure your bin is clearly visible for the collection crew and not causing inconvenience to others.

We provide one bin per household for each service you receive. Please see below for further information.
