Waste Minimisation

Waste minimisation is all about reducing the amount of waste that you have to throw out in the first place! There are lots of ways that you can reduce the amount of waste you have to throw away. From being careful about what you buy, to re-using what you can.

Smart shopping

Try to avoid unecessary packaging on your food, buy fruit and veg loose, and don't accepting plastic carrier bags, take a re-usable bag, or a bag for life instead.

Recycling Collections

The Council is aiming to supply every household in the district with a recycling collection from the kerbside. We will supply you with a black box and brown bags, for the collection of your recycling.

Black boxes are currently limited to one per property.  Additional materals can be placed in carrier bags and left on top of or next to the box.  Please keep paper, glass and cans in separate bags.

If your box has been stolen or damaged please complete this online form.  A replacement box should be delivered within 5 working days of your report.  If you have a damaged box, please leave it out for Veolia to collect when they deliver the replacement box.

If you have just moved into the area, or are about to move into the area, you can request a new customer pack from Veolia.  This will include a black recycling box, green waste recycling bags and a recycling and collections calendar.  Your welcome pack will be delivered within 5 working days of your request, or within 5 working days of your moving date.  To request a new customer pack, please complete this online form.
