We all need the brown bin service. How else can we dispose of garden refuse, especially if, like me, we don't have transport and are unable to take it to the tip. If we lose this service there will be even more fly tipping than there is now.

I refuse to pay the extra fee and intend to charge the council a fee for storing their brown bin on my property from 10 working days after I give them notice to remove it!

We have been forced to use the brown bin and we already pay for it along with the others. If you make people pay no one will use then so it will go in general waste or left elsewhere

They recycle into compost which they sell on. Why should we pay. Just another way to make more money out of us all so giving then more money to waste on something else out of there yearly budget. Not on. X

We pay enough council tax now! The council issued these bins for garden waste we did not ask for them, this tax will result in more fly tipping !!! Why do we have fly tipping,because people do not want to pay £23.50 for a collection. This should be a free service twice a year then levy a small charge,it must cost the council more money to send out there lorries picking up the fly tipping!If this extra charge goes ahead where will it end?

The council can collect my bin if this happens as it will no longer need it

I cant believe they say it cost Eight Hundred Thousand pounds a year. I would love to see the breakdown of that sum. And surely those silly little silver food bins are a complete failure. Get rid of those instead.

as previously stated the contents are turned into compost then sold and for a big profit so why should we have to pay for the collection, and yes those silly grey bins get rid of them, they are not fit for purpose.

I think we pay enough for very little service as it is without paying more for even less!

Not only do we over pay for council tax, there's another tax to contend with. Lower one to introduce the other if it has to be introduced

We pay for this through our council tax, they just cannot change the rules to suit themselves. find the money from somewhere else

Refuse collection has always been covered by the council tax we pay and we certainly pay enough already! This act will only encourage people to go back to using their black bins or dumping it illegally so how is this good for the environment?
