Order a new or replacement bin | Sevenoaks District Council

Order a new or replacement bin

Use this service to order replacement household waste, recycling, garden waste and food waste bins. You can also let us know about broken bins that need repairing or unwanted bins that you would like removed.

Waste, recycling and food waste bins are provided by us for most residential properties. Residents  are responsible for maintaining and looking after them. For new-build properties and rented accommodation, bins should normally be provided by the developer or landlord.
 

Report a problem with your wheelie bin delivery

If we've delivered wheelie bins to your neighbours but you have not yet received yours, please wait 24 hours before reporting a missed wheelie bin delivery, as our crews may still be working in your area.

You can also use the form below to let us know if there is a fault or problem with your new wheelie bins.

If we are collecting a damaged bin, please make sure you leave it somewhere our crew can see it.

You can put household waste out for collection in black sacks while you are waiting for a replacement bin.

Dry recycling can be put out for collection, provided it is contained in a cardboard box .

Food waste cannot be put out for collection while you are waiting for a replacement bin.
 

Request additional or smaller bins

If you produce a lot of food waste, you can order an additional outdoor food waste bin.

If you live in a large household or have specific medical needs and require more bin capacity, you can request additional recycling or general waste bins from 12 October 2026.

We do not automatically provide additional waste bins on request. You may need to demonstrate that you recycle as much as possible and regularly separate your food waste before additional capacity is approved.

From 12 October 2026, you can also request smaller wheelie bins. Smaller wheelie bins are only provided in limited circumstances. Please be aware there is only a small difference in size between the smaller bins and our standard bins.
