If your household needs additional rubbish capacity, you can apply to be assessed to receive a second rubbish bin.
Before you apply
Before considering an additional rubbish bin you will need to:
- already have a large rubbish bin (360 litres)
- demonstrate that you are recycling as much as possible
- tell us if you have any waste related to a medical condition or your family situation
- tell us the number of people in the household and any other details that may be relevant to the request
Apply for a second bin
To apply to get a second rubbish bin, please make a request.
We will review your request and contact you to let you know the outcome within 7 working days.
If you are approved for a second bin, there will be a charge of £15.
Emptying second bins
A second bin will only be emptied where it has been applied for and approved. We review this arrangement every 2 years.
