Garden
All six West London councils offer a garden waste collection service. A special bin or bag is supplied for your garden waste and is collected it as part of their household collection scheme. If you don't have this type of collection service or your bin is full, you can recycle garden waste at your nearest Household Waste Recycling Centre.
Impact of Garden waste
Garden waste in landfills breaks down without oxygen which produces methane gas. Methane is around 25 times (over a 100 year period) more powerful as a greenhouse gas than the carbon dioxide that is produced from composting (in the presence of oxygen in the atmosphere).
