Burning garden waste

We strongly discourage bonfires to get rid of your garden waste. Not only can bonfires cause unnecessary callouts for the Fire Service, smoke is also damaging to the environment and can be harmful for neighbours, who may also consider it to be antisocial behaviour.

Please look into composting garden waste at the Recycle Me New website (opens in new window). For more information about bonfires and smoke control visit our pollution webpage.
