What is garden waste?
Garden waste refers to a wide range of materials that are produced when gardening or outdoor maintenance. While it commonly refers to organic matter, man-made materials, like bricks and tiles, can also be referred to as garden waste.
Some most common garden waste examples include:
Grass clippings
Leaves
Branches
Weeds
Dead plants
Soil
Broken paving slabs
Bricks
Tiles
Stone or gravel
What should I do with garden waste?
If you have garden waste you need to get rid of, there is a wide range of options you can choose from.
Reuse it
The most environmentally friendly approach to garden waste is to reuse it. How you reuse it will depend on the type of waste you have, but there are a few options open to you. Organic green waste such as soil, grass clippings and dead plants can be used to create a compost heap or simply left on your lawn to provide the grass with additional nutrients.
Alternatively, hard landscaping waste like old slabs, bricks and tiles can be used in future gardening projects or even sold online.
Use a garden waste collection service
If you don’t want to reuse your waste, you could opt for a garden waste collection service. Many local authorities offer this kind of service, and at RF Recycling, we have a waste collection offering of our own. This involves our team heading to your location and taking the waste away. Our
garden waste recycling centre has a zero waste to landfill policy, so you can rest assured that all your waste will be disposed of in the most responsible way.
Use a garden waste skip
If you have a large amount of garden waste, then a skip may be more suitable. We have a
variety of skips in a wide range of sizes, and can provide you with the most appropriate type for your needs. Simply fill the skip with your garden waste, and give us a call when you’re ready for it to be collected.
Use a grab bag
Sometimes, you might not need an entire skip for your garden waste. In these instances,
waste bags may be more suitable. These durable, waterproof bags are ideal for domestic gardening jobs, and you can fill them up with waste before
contacting us to arrange collection.
