The council’s garden waste collection service will restart on the week beginning March 8.
Existing customers have already been contacted advising them on how to continue with the service, and those that have signed up again should have received their collection day and week.
Residents can also check their collection day and download a collection calendar on our website.
Garden waste is a paid-for, seasonal service with collections taking place fortnightly. This year collections will take place until the week ending November 26.
Other ways of dealing with garden waste include home composting – you can buy a compost bin from the council; or you can take your garden waste to your nearest recycling centre to be disposed of (remember you must make an appointment to visit one of our recycling centres and some vehicles need a permit).
All garden waste in Carmarthenshire, whether it is collected from the kerbside or disposed of at a recycling centre, is taken to a central composting facility at Nantycaws, Carmarthen, where it is turned into compost to be reused. It is available to buy from the recycling centres at Trostre (Llanelli), Wernddu (Ammanford) Nantycaws (Carmarthen) and Whitland.
For more information or to apply for garden waste collections, buy a compost bin or find information on our recycling centres, please visit the recycling pages.
