Residents using Powys’ garden waste collection service are being reminded that only a few weeks of collections remain this year.

Subscribers can check their final 2025 collection dates on the sticker attached to their green bin or by visiting: en.powys.gov.uk/binday

The service will pause over winter as garden waste levels drop, before restarting in early March 2026. Subscriptions for next year will open in the spring.

Cllr Jackie Charlton, Cabinet Member for a Greener Powys, said: All our gardens are looking very autumnal and rather damp at the moment, but that won’t be stopping many of us from tidying them up after the summer and getting ready for spring.

“With that in mind, we are keen to remind everyone to make the most of the last few remaining garden waste collections of 2025.

“So far this year, with the help of participating households, thousands of tonnes of garden waste have been collected and recycled.

“With the amount we collect now tailing off the service does take a break over the winter, but you can still recycle your garden waste by composting it at home or by taking it to one of the household recycling centres in Powys.”
