A message for residents from North Yorkshire Council: 2026 GARDEN WASTE SERVICE Residents can now pay for their licence for the 2026 garden waste collection service. A licence costs £52 for collections between March and early December. The licence covers one 240-litre wheelie bin to be emptied fortnightly. Anyone who wants to have more than one bin emptied will need to pay for a licence for each additional bin. Residents can also pay for a licence at any time throughout the season but are encouraged to do so before the start of the service in March as the cost remains the same. Once paid, a licence pack should arrive within 14 days.
