Standard pricing

Four ways to pay.

For households

Essentials

£39 /mo

Per household

Up to two bins, every collection day. The standard household plan. Photo proof and free reattempts if the council misses. Temporary changes can be reviewed by Daro where needed.

  • Bins out the night before, back after the council's been
  • Up to 2 bins included; extra bins £6/month each
  • Two photos per visit (kerb-out and property-return)
  • Free reattempt if the council misses your street
  • Temporary changes can be reviewed by Daro where needed

For short-let owners

Holiday Host

£69 /mo

Per property

For Airbnb hosts, short-let owners, and second-home owners. Built around the irregular occupancy pattern — bins still need to come and go even when nobody's there.

  • Same service as Essentials, plus calendar-aware coverage
  • Bins still handled when the property is empty
  • Photo proof you can forward to cleaners or guests
  • Discount for hosts with 3+ properties — ask us
  • Free reattempt if the council misses

For landlords

HMO & Landlord

£45 /door

Per managed property, per month

For landlords managing three or more properties. Volume pricing, single point of contact, one combined invoice. £39/door at 10+ properties.

  • £45/door at 3-9 properties; £39/door at 10+ properties
  • One monthly invoice across your full portfolio
  • Bin-day reliability without tenant chasing
  • Reduces complaints from neighbours and council
  • Easy add/remove as your portfolio changes

For letting agents

Channel Partner

£39 /door

First 5 letting agents in our area

For letting agencies that want to offer bin handling as a managed service to their landlord clients. Discounted rate locked while the partnership remains active. Minimum 5 doors at signup.

  • £39/door locked for life of the partnership
  • White-label option — appears as part of your service
  • One combined invoice, monthly Direct Debit
  • Minimum 5 doors at signup; add doors any time
  • 30-day mutual termination

The honest detail

What's included. What isn't.

Always included.

  • Bins moved to the kerb the night before, and back after
  • Up to 2 bins per Essentials property (more as add-on)
  • Two photos per visit, geo-tagged and timestamped
  • Free reattempt if the council misses your street
  • Free reattempt if we miss your visit
  • Temporary changes can be reviewed by Daro where needed
  • Cancel any time, no contract, no notice
  • Customer support via email and in-app

What we don't do.

  • We don't collect or transport waste — that's the council's job
  • We don't sort contaminated recycling — council decides what they take
  • We don't handle hazardous waste (asbestos, chemicals, etc.)
  • We don't enter properties without clear access instructions
  • We don't service commercial bins (this is a residential service)
  • We don't accept cash payments — Direct Debit or card only

Add-ons

Optional extras as you need them.

Three add-ons. The first is available today. The other two arrive later in 2026 as we build out our service.

01

Extra bins

£6/month per bin

If your household has more than two bins (e.g. you also have food caddy or garden waste), add them at signup, or contact us to add more bins later. Same service, same reliability.

02

Monthly bin cleaning

From £8/month · Available later 2026

A monthly deep clean of your bins — high-pressure wash, biodegradable sanitiser. Optional, added to your existing subscription, billed together.

03

Garden waste handling

Pricing TBC · Available later 2026

For households that already have a brown bin and want the same Daro service applied to it. Counts as an extra bin until we launch dedicated garden waste pricing.

Pricing questions

The small print, in plain English.

Is VAT included in the price?

The prices shown are the total you pay. Daro isn't yet VAT-registered (we're below the UK threshold). If we reach the threshold later, we'll absorb the VAT — your rate won't change.

Do I save by paying annually?

No. Annual prepayment doesn't come with a discount. We bill monthly via Direct Debit because it's simpler, fairer, and lets you cancel any time without claiming a refund.

What happens if I cancel mid-month?

You're billed for the calendar month you started in, then no further charges. We don't pro-rate refunds for partial months, but we also don't charge notice periods — when you cancel, we stop billing the following month.

What if I need a temporary change?

Temporary changes can be reviewed by Daro where needed. Contact us so we can confirm the service and billing arrangements that apply.

Can I switch tiers?

Yes, anytime. Upgrade from Essentials to Holiday Host (e.g. you start renting out the property) or move between landlord tiers as your portfolio grows. Tier changes apply from the next billing month.

Refunds?

If we make a serious service error, we credit your next invoice or refund the affected month. Direct Debits are protected by the Direct Debit Guarantee — if anything is taken in error, your bank refunds it immediately.
