PermiServ
PermiServ (part of Routeware) is delighted to announce the return of The Little Green Event, a free one-day conference created specifically for local authority officers involved in garden waste and recycling services.
Taking place at Park Regis Birmingham, this annual event has become a dedicated forum for councils to share practical experiences, discuss common challenges and explore new ways to improve operational performance, resident satisfaction and service efficiency of garden waste services.
Hosted by PermiServ and supported by its growing Little Green Network, the event brings together waste and recycling professionals from across the UK to focus on one of the most dynamic and growing areas of local authority service delivery: chargeable garden waste collections.
Designed for Local Authorities
As garden waste services continue to evolve, councils face increasing pressure to balance income generation, resident expectations and operational efficiency. The Little Green Event has been developed to help officers learn directly from peers who are managing these challenges every day.
The agenda will feature:
- Council case studies
- Communications Advice
- Practical service insights and lessons learned
- Round table discussions on current challenges and opportunities
- Networking with fellow waste professionals
- Technology and communications developments and best practice
Previous events have included speakers from councils such as Buckinghamshire Council, Hackney Council, Shropshire Council and more, sharing candid insights into subscription growth, tonnage increases, service launches and workflow improvements. This year, WRAP will open the event, joined by speakers from Trafford Council, The Behaviour Change Network, Routeware and more.

Practical Takeaways You Can Apply
Whether your authority is looking to strengthen your service, considering introducing a chargeable service, reviewing pricing structures, improving communications or looking to increase participation, delegates will leave with actionable ideas and real-world examples from councils that have successfully delivered results.
The event also offers a valuable opportunity to ask questions, compare approaches and build connections with colleagues facing similar operational and policy challenges.
Free to Attend
Attendance is completely free for local authority officers, but places are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
