GARDEN WASTE IN WANDSWORTH
From the Wandsworth Council website
You can have up to five bags of compostable garden waste collected each week along with your other dustbin waste, this does not include Japanese Knotweed or any bulky garden waste items. Just place your sacks of garden waste beside any dustbins or other waste sacks for collection and they will collected at the same time. You do not have to use special garden waste sacks - any strong refuse sack is fine so long as it is tied and isn't split.
However, any garden waste collected is incinerated, generating electricity for the National Grid. The ashes produced are recycled in cement for construction projects, so why not compost if you have a garden?
You will need a composter and to find out how to set it up you can follow the guidelines here.
