Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council has backed offering an extra green bin for £60 a year collection costs for the first time. The bin would cost £40.
It will pick up extra green waste for £30 a year, from April.
Bulky waste collection charges will also rise from £10.66 to £15.
The move is part of drives by the cash-strapped council to cut costs and make cash.
The charges were approved by the council’s cabinet last week.
