Waste & recycling
Lots of materials are collected and recycled from your doorstep A weekly waste and recycling kerbside collection service is provided for all households in the District. There is a wheeled bin for non-recyclable refuse and black boxes for your recycling. Reducing, reusing and recyclingUsing your black recycling box is fantastic but it's just the start of what you can do... Reducing the amount of waste we produce in the first instance is by far the best approach we can take to the problem of the heavy impact of our waste upon the environment. To help everyone discover how to reduce waste and what else you can do reduce, reuse and recycle are the three important steps you need to remember. Why Reduce, Reuse and Recycle?We are at a critical point in time where we need to change our approach towards waste. We can no longer afford to treat waste purely as a commodity of which to dispose. Our waste impacts heavily on our environment, both in terms of the depletion of natural resources to produce everyday goods and in terms of the current reliance on landfill sites, and is an unsustainable part of modern living.
