Recycling and waste
A full year bin calendar is available to download (right), please select the 'Waste and Recycling Collection Leaflet 2012' - the calendar is on page 2.
We offer a fortnightly kerbside collection of recycling, food and garden waste and household waste to all 58,000 residential properties in the district. Our current recycling rate is 52%, making us one of the top performing districts in the country. However, there is still more we can all do to help reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill, and we are committed to making recycling easier for you. On these pages you can find information about the recycling and waste collection services, your collection days, the containers available to you, and why we all need to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
