EDDC are currently experiencing a shortage of green waste vehicles which means we will be unable to collect all green waste. green waste collections will take place as usual on your normal collection days, however you can report any problems by contacting the East Garden Waste Collection Honiton n District Council helpline on 0800 772 3859 All of our skip bags are fully supplied and delivered ready to use.

The district council offers a green waste collection service on every normal refuse collection day in the month of July and August. It is during these months that the district council has to collect two rounds of refuse, three rounds in some areas (Holcombe Burnell and Lynmouth being the exceptions). We will endeavour to collect green waste on your normal scheduled dates, however, please be aware that due to reduced staff numbers this may not always be possible.
