What is a cubic metre?
One cubic metre is the equivalent of a box which is
1 metre long x 1 metre wide x 1 metre tall
(1 metre is about 3 ft. 3 inches)
How much green-waste will fit into that space?
This will depend on how well it squashes down on loading. As a rough guide;
one cubic metre
would typically be equivalent to
2 bulk bags
(the sort that a tonne of sand would be delivered in)
filled level to the top with hedge trimmings
or
15 X
80 litre dustbins, level filled.
You may wish to prepare your green-waste for collection by just stacking it in a heap,
or by containing it in bags, bundles and bins,
which we would empty on loading.
Whichever is more convenient for you.
