Rivals rubbish £45 charge for collecting garden waste

PLANS to charge up to 80,000 households £45 a year for bin collections of garden waste have come under attack.

Labour controlled Bolton council say the charge would only apply to households that 'opt in' to have their 'green bin' garden waste collected.

The one third of Bolton households that do not have a garden and instead put their food waste in a 23-litre caddy would not be affected.

The scheme would only apply to garden waste, meaning that green bins could still be used for food waste. Collections of food waste in green bins and caddies would continue as normal without charge.
