Waste and recycling

Target 45+

Last month together we reused, recycled and composted 52 per cent of household waste. This means we are on track to beat our target of at least 45 per cent set by the government for 2010.

What you can recycle

Our new waste collection scheme makes it easier for you to recycle more of your waste. We now collect a wider range of material including garden waste, kitchen and food waste, cardboard, and more types of plastics.
