Why we charge for a replacement bins
We charge for some replacement bins to help cover the cost of supplying them. We receive thousands of reports of lost or damaged bins each year, and providing new bins costs us around £265,000 annually. Charging for bins helps protect other council services and could save us about £17,000 a year.
