Each price plan is designed to suit customers’ specific waste requirements.
Our Standard Service is ideal for households that fill their bins on a weekly basis. Standard Service is a valuable option for those that require their bins to be emptied regularly and like to know they are paying a fixed price each month.
Our Pay by Weight service is ideal for households that only fill their bin less frequently or seasonally. This service allows you to remain in control of your costs by offering a reduced service charge and only paying a per kilo charge when your bins are collected. By reducing the amount of waste going into the general waste bin customers can also save on their bill as organic bins have a lower per kilo charge than the general waste bin and the recycling bin does not have a per kilo charge.
