This has been a huge success for all involved; garden waste arisings have reduced, costs have been reduced and councils are able to meet recycling targets. By the end of 2017, around 155,000 tonnes of garden waste had been diverted from disposal by almost 50,000 Garden Waste Collection Oundle members in the Arun, Herefordshire Northampton and East Northamptonshire council areas. The facilities will be located at Whielden Lane (south west of the town itself) and Abington Park Road (by Junction 16 of the M1).

Garden Waste Collection Oundle is a programme for members of the public who live in the following five areas of the county: Portmouth, Herefordshire Arun, Melton, Tandridge and East Northamptonshire. The scheme offers two ways to dispose of green waste: 1.     Book a collection online, phone or by post 2.     Or order an optional bespoke bin at their local garden centres The collections and bins can be booked on the councils'home page or by contacting Oundle Borough Council on   0800 772 3859 Portmsorth's year round doortodoor garden waste collection service, which started in autumn 2012, has transformed recycling rates in the area from 40% in October 2010 to over 70% today.

Based on the success of our doortodoor green waste collection scheme, we launched a new green waste collection service for residents in Oundle. Residents can sign up to collect their green waste via subscription collection or pay for an annual bulk bin with unlimited collections. If you live in Oundle Northamptonshire, we will pick up your green waste and compost it for you. We deliver more than 8,000 tonnes of compost to local allotment holders and gardeners every year helping to grow local food and flowers, naturally.
