Hundreds of householders join South Holland’s new garden waste collection scheme

More than 400 households across South Holland have signed up for a trial garden waste collection scheme, launching on Monday, April 4.

The council-run scheme costs £49 per year plus a one-off fee of £15 to cover delivery and lease of the bins.
On Monday (March 14), the council had 427 households involved.

A council spokesman said: “This is in line with the target figures we were expecting for four weeks into the scheme.
“We anticipate numbers will increase at a faster rate over the Easter break and as the weather improves.”

Parts of Spalding, Holbeach, Crowland, Long Sutton, Sutton Bridge and Donington are included, with collections made fortnightly.
