YOUR GARDEN ORGANICS SERVICE
Cessnock, Maitland, and Singleton Council provide residents with 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 do not have a Garden Organics bin please contact 1800 870 250. An additional bin is available by contacting your local council.
Remember Garden Organics Only. If it grows in your garden in can go in your garden organics bin – 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 and now available from ANL- Styles Rd Weston. Take a look at the videos below for the full story.
Cessnock, Maitland and Singleton Councils hold regular compost bag give-away events for residents to sample the final product. Then it’s easy to understand why it’s so important to use the bins correctly. Next events will be held at:
Thursday 21st April 10.30 – 12.30 pm Kurri Kurri
Saturday 30th April 10 – 12.00 pm The Basin
