Diverting garden waste from landfill lifts local recycling rates, while converting it into compost and soil conditioners benefits the environment. Biffa's Green Waste Club is a free option for local authorities.
Devised, managed and operated by Biffa, the Green Waste Club today has thousands of both occasional and committed gardeners as customers who enjoy a dedicated collection service without public expenditure.
Conceived as a budget-neutral way of helping local authorities increase recycling performance and provide community support, the Green Waste Club was launched in 2005 and is now well-established in several local authority areas.Its environment-friendly service is funded by keenly-priced annual subscriptions paid by customers, either as individuals or as neighbours joining together.
The Club provides a reliable fortnightly collection of garden waste from dedicated wheeled bins, and then takes the green waste to partner processors for conversion into compost for domestic and agricultural use.
Many thousands of tonnes of garden waste have been diverted from landfill by the Club’s customers in the Surrey Heath, Arun and East Northamptonshire council areas, with more expansion planned (a Club is planned for Portsmouth City Council).
