Register for 2024/2025 garden waste collections
You can register a garden waste collection permit(s) until 30 May 2025.
The 2024/2025 service year runs from 4 November 2024 to 2 November 2025.
You now need to sign in or register with mygovscot myaccount to register for the garden waste service. This allows you to keep track of your garden waste subscriptions.
The easiest way to register is with an annual direct debit which automatically renews your subscription every year. The first payment will be taken within seven days of you registering and future payments will be taken on or shortly after 1 August each year.
By signing up you agree to our terms and conditions.
When you get to the pages to enter your direct debit details you'll have 10 minutes to complete the form so make sure you have your account and sort code details ready.
Annual direct debit payments will continue until you cancel your subscription or we have been unable to take payment. Find out . You can still register for one collection year with a single card payment, but you'll then need to register annually to continue receiving the service in future years.
If you move house you can transfer your permit.
Tenement addresses
If you live in a traditional tenement, with a numbering system like 1F1, 1F2, and so on, this is the format used when registering. The flat numbers follow the flow of the staircase for each floor. For example, 3F2 is 3rd floor, flat 2, which is the second flat from the stair.
Other ways to register
You can still register for one collection year with a single card payment. You will need to register every year to continue receiving the service in future years.
