Following the winter break, garden waste uplifts have restarted and will remain free of charge until July, when garden waste collections will become a paid for service.
The SNP led council decided to introduce the £50 charge for the Green Bin which will entitle the household to 19 fortnightly collections from March to November.
From June, permits can be applied for online, by calling Customer Services on 0300 123 4510 or at Community Hubs by appointment. The exact date will be communicated nearer the time.
