Get ready for autumn with extra garden waste collections,

Residents across southern Oxfordshire who are signed up for brown bin collections can put out twice as much garden waste during one week this month.

South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse district councils are giving those who are part of the paid-for service the opportunity to put out the equivalent of one extra bin’s worth of garden waste (around three large bin bags) during:

• week commencing 16 October – Vale of White Horse
• week commencing 23 October – South Oxfordshire

Residents should leave their extra garden waste out in bin liners or sacks beside their brown bins on their usual collection day during these weeks.  Trade waste bags cannot be accepted.

​

Please be vigilant and ensure your out buildings and sheds are secure, there were some break ins along Dark Lane on Friday night (6th October) around 9:30 pm to 10:00 pm.

For general security advice, take a look at the Thames Valley Police website, here.
