YOUR GARDEN ORGANICS SERVICE

Cessnock, Maitland, and Singleton Council residents now have a fortnightly Garden Organics collection service.

Your Garden Organics bin  has a lime green lid and is collected fortnightly, on the alternate week to your yellow-lid recycling bin. 

If you have not received your bin please contact 1800 870 250. An additional bin is available by contacting your local council.

Please remember Garden Organics Only.

All garden vegetation is accepted but NO bags and NO food thanks.

The material collected in your garden organics bin is processed by ANL at Tea Gardens, where it is made into a range of high quality compost and soil conditioners used by home gardeners and farmers. Take a look at the videos below for the full story.
