Full answer
Middlesbrough Council's Band D Council Tax for 2026/27 is roughly £2,010 for council services plus Cleveland Police (~£290) and Cleveland Fire Brigade (~£90) precepts -- total around £2,390. Middlesbrough is a unitary authority, one of four that make up the former county of Cleveland alongside Stockton-on-Tees, Redcar & Cleveland and Hartlepool, all sharing the same Cleveland Police and Fire precepts. Middlesbrough's Band D figure sits toward the higher end nationally, reflecting the borough's relatively narrow council tax base and significant social care cost pressures. Band multipliers apply the same way everywhere: A x0.667, B x0.778, C x0.889, D reference, E x1.222, F x1.444, G x1.667, H x2.000. Discounts: 25% single occupier discount, 100% exemption for full-time students, and Council Tax Reduction for low-income households.
