From 3 March, Brixton Hill residents can once again register for a year’s garden waste collection from Lambeth Council, which has now changed to a weekly service.

What can be collected

• grass cuttings
• leaves and twigs
• weeds, shrubs, plants and flowers
• hedge trimmings
• branches up to 10cm
• pet bedding from plant-eating animals.

Garden waste will now be collected weekly on the same day as your rubbish, recycling and food waste.

From 3 March 2014 you can sign up to receive the service for a year, between April 2014 to March 2015.

Please call Lambeth Council on 020 7926 0489 to sign up or visit them at 185-205 Shakespeare Road, Herne Hill, SE24 0PZ.

If you are already a member of the scheme, you can renew your annual membership online at www.lambeth.gov.uk/recycling – you can also find out more there.
