A household with one or more children under 3 years old who wear disposable nappies are entitled to a year’s supply of blue authorised rubbish sacks, to help deal with the extra rubbish created.
Before you start, please note:
- you will be asked for your youngest child's date of birth
- there is a delivery and administrative charge of £22 for this service
- your extra sacks will be delivered within 30 calendar days
- you must apply each year – there is no automatic renewal for this service
Apply for extra capacity
Please note payment will be taken by card at the end of your application.
Reusable nappy incentive scheme
As an alternative to extra bin capacity, consider saving money and reducing your waste by switching some or all of your nappies to reusables. You can apply for a free reusable nappy starter pack or save £30 when spending a minimum of £45 on reusable nappies with Dorset Council’s reusable nappy incentive scheme.
