A council has promised to make changes to garden waste bin collections following a number of problems over the last year. Gedling borough councillor Sam Smith (Con), who represents Trent Valley, said some residents have been left “infuriated” by missed collections for garden waste, despite paying a fee every year. The cost for the 2025/26 service is £45 for one brown bin, and any additional brown bins cost £23 each. “I have no complaints with general waste, black waste or green waste, it is garden waste,” he said, speaking during a Gedling Borough Council meeting on Monday (September 29). “It is really infuriating and it lets this council down.”Director of operations, Sarah Troman, said garden waste collections were “at the top of the list” for reorganisation as a result.
