Spring into action: sign up for our Garden Waste service

Garden waste

With Spring around the corner, it’s time to think about your garden waste. You can now sign up for the 2026/27 annual service launching in April.

  • Year-round subscription launches in April
  • Prices frozen for second year
  • £69 for annual subscription

We’ve kept the price frozen again which means our reliable year-round subscription remains at £69 (that’s £2.76 per collection) and £34.50 for those on Council Tax Support.

Sign up by Friday 13 March 2026 for your collections to start in April. It’s quick and easy to sign up online at www.harrow.gov.uk/gardenwaste. For ease of mind, why not consider subscribing for Direct Debit so that your account renews next Spring. 

If you already pay by Direct Debit, you can sit back and relax – your subscription will renew on 31 March.  

Cllr Stephen Greek, Cabinet Member for Performance, Communications & Customer Experience said:

“More than 26,000 people benefit from our all year-round service. We’re freezing the price again this year giving residents value for money with a reliable service. Once you’re signed up, leave the rest to our teams who’ll collect your garden waste on your usual collection day.”

Once subscribed, you’ll get a letter before the start of your 2026 service with further information and a new sticker to put onto your brown bin. These are sent out around the end of March. 

Wondering what we do with your garden waste after we collected it? It’s taken a specialist facility where it’s composted and then used on farms, parks and gardens.
