First of all, having gardening gloves, safety goggles and a dust mask are recommended.
They also suggest incinerating away from any building or structure, roads, and trees, and being on stable bare ground.
It is not advised to use the incinerator bin in very windy or very dry conditions, as burning embers can be blown long distances which can increase the risk of accidental fires.
To light the incinerator, line it with scrunched up newspaper that is not scrunched up too tight, followed by a loose layer of dry twigs or grass.
The paper can then be lit, and garden waste can be added as a blaze has started going.
Things like plastic, food waste, wooden objects and furniture should not be burnt, only hedge or grass cuttings, leaves and twigs or branches.
Ash that is left over from burning can then be left over night to cool, and removed into an airtight bag or container using a mug or trowel.
This cheap garden buy from Lidl is among several good outdoor bargains being offered by Lidl, including some LED lighting, and toys.

The 5 best flowers to help bees to thrive Nature experts at Faith In Nature have shared the 5 best flowers Brits can plant in their gardens to help bees thrive. Rebecca Miller, Fabulous' Associate Editor and keen gardener explains why "bees are brilliant". "They are vital. They pollinate our food and play a crucial role in our ecosystem. But climate change, the increasing use of pesticides and loss of habitat means bees are endangered. No matter how big your garden or outside space is, you can plant a flower or two to help bees." Lavender Lavender can thrive in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. It's fragrant and flowers all-summer-long meaning it's a big hit with bees - especially bumble bees. Sunflowers This cheery flower giant are bee-magnets. And if you look closely at a sunflower head, the big 'flowers' are actually a cluster of small flowers, called an inflorescence which attract pollinators. Ideally, grow sunflowers in groups to provide nectar and pollen for as many bees as possible. At the end of summer, collect the dried seeds from the sunflower heads to feed the birds or plant next year. Heather These abundant, bell-shaped blooms are brimming with nectar and pollen – which is good news for bees. Cornflowers A vivid blue wildflower, cornflowers are often planted alongside other meadow blooms, like ox-eye daisies and poppies. They grow on tall stems and are packed with nectar, making them particularly attractive to bees. Cornflowers bloom for a long time and are simple to grow, so they're perfect for first-time gardeners and experienced alike. Crocuses (and snowdrops) Later this summer, when you're starting to plan for your Spring displays, consider crocuses and snowdrops. They provide bees, such as the queen buff-tailed bumblebee and male hairy-footed flower bees, with vital early pollen as they emerge from their winter hibernation
