Weekly food waste recycling collections
Find out all you need to know about the weekly food waste recycling collection which started in October 2010. Our video shows you how to use the collection and we include a list of local stockists of suitable compostable liners for your kitchen caddy.
We are committed to recycling and reducing our rubbish and we have set ourselves a long term goal of zero waste. We are currently recycling almost 43% of our waste and are on target to achieve even higher levels of recycling this year.
