25% single person discount
Saves £1,112/year on your Band G bill (reducing it to £3,337/year). Apply directly to East Renfrewshire council. Anyone living alone automatically qualifies. Adults who are full-time students, carers, or severely mentally impaired are disregarded when counting.

Council Tax Reduction (CTR)
A means-tested discount administered by East Renfrewshire council, available to working-age and pension-age households on low incomes. CTR can reduce your Band G bill by up to 100%. It is separate from the single person discount — you can receive both simultaneously. Apply via East Renfrewshire council's website.
Disabled person's band reduction
If someone in your household is severely disabled and needs extra space or a specific room (e.g. for a wheelchair), your property is assessed as one band lower. For Band G, this means paying Band F rates instead — saving £757/year.
