Garden waste collections are restarting in February

Brown bin collections of your garden waste will begin again in Luton in mid February. To find your first collection day, check your recycling collection calendar for 2012 or open the A-Z Recycling & Refuse Collection days download at the bottom of the page. This will also tell you which recycling calendar schedule you are on.

When you know which recycling calendar schedule you are on, view the appropriate download at the bottom of the page to see when to put out your recycling rubbish.

Luton's Household Waste Recycling Centres in Progress Way and Eaton Green Road still accept your household garden waste all year round.

This is the perfect time to do the sort of gardening you can't during the rest of the year - so make the most of it now before the growing season begins again very shortly!

• rethink the design of your garden
• select plants and seeds for the spring
• replenish nutrients in the soil
• start home composting and take advantage of the great home compost deals.
