Residents in Gedling borough could win £100 in garden vouchers when they sign up for a council’s waste collection service.
Gedling Borough Council is launching their annual garden waste scheme with a competition to win vouchers if customers sign up or renew to the scheme before the end of April.
Now spring is here, those wanting to sign up to the scheme would have their garden waste collected fortnightly. The collection costs £36 per year and the council can collect hedge trimmings, leaves, grass cuttings, plants and weeds from their doorstep.
Over 14,000 residents have already signed up for the scheme and if households sign up before April 30, they will be entered into a prize draw to win £100 worth of garden vouchers.
Residents can also request additional bins for £18 per year. Collections run every two weeks from March until December.
Councillor Peter Barnes, Portfolio Holder for Environment said: “We’re delighted to be launching this year’s service with the extra incentive if residents sign up before 30 April. Joining the scheme saves residents the hassle of going to the tip all of the time and makes gardening a lot more convenient as we will collect the waste from their doorstep every fortnight.”
