NOTE

Approval for additional capacity will be given by a Recycling and Waste Minimisation Officer (or other nominated officer), and only if the household meets the above criteria, has fully completed the application form, names have been verified and a successful waste analysis has been carried out.

If additional capacity is authorised due to babies in nappies then the maximum period of additional capacity is 3 years. After 3 years, the household will revert back to standard 240 Litre bin unless they meet the criteria for the number of people living in the household.

Children over 3 years of age are deemed to produce the same quantity of waste as an adult. Waste from pets i.e. cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, parrots etc have been taken into account.

Any additional capacity provided is subject to random spot checks and is approved on the basis that the household fully utilises the recycling service provided. If the household is subsequently found not to be fully recycling then the additional capacity may be removed.
