New or additional containers

Ordering and delivery 

  1. We are currently dealing with a backlog of orders for delivery to homes across East Lothian. While we aim to deliver in 10 working days, it may take longer to fulfil orders at present. We are grateful to residents for their patience and understanding and are doing our best to process your order as quickly as possible.
  2. The first time you register on myeastlothian please wait for an hour before ordering new or additional containers - as it can take up to an hour before new accounts go live.

Green bin

There is a limit of one non recyclable waste container per household.

Larger green bins may be available to households that are using the recycling services and have six or more people permanently living at that address.

Brown bin 

We cannot provide you with an additional brown bin. If you have more garden waste than you can fit into your bin you can take it to your local recycling centre

We can repair and replace lids, axels and wheels on your green and brown bins.

All containers and bin repairs can be ordered by email to: wasteservices@eastlothian.gov.uk or call: 01875 824 305.
