    Seems odd. The permit stuck to your bin would have your old address on it. Although I suppose the bin men just look for the correct colour of sticker.

    The permit is for the property but it's transferrable. If you don't transfer it then you will have to wait for the waste sign up window to open before you can purchase a new permit.
    Of course if you do transfer it then the new buyers have no collection until the window opens.

    The standard Scottish missives only require you to leave bins which are provided free of charge by the council.

    We moved earlier this year. Our sellers had renewed the brown bin permit and weren't taking it with them, so we did likewise for our old one.

    I did look into the logistics of transferring the permit, and it seemed to be straightforward (email the garden waste team at the council, take the bin with you), but obviously I didn't find out how well it works in practice.
