The rollout of a £40 garden waste permit in Renfrewshire is predicted to make the council £828,000 in the current financial year, a report has said.
The scheme, which formed part of the SNP administration's budget in March, is set to be introduced from Monday, July 10, but households can apply now.
The change – which will operate as a £40 charge per brown bin – means residents who want their garden waste collected will need a valid permit displayed on their bin.
