Welcome to the Recycle for Calderdale website

Calderdale's new improved recycling service introduced on the 20 April 2009 has achieved record levels of recycling: up from around 25% last year in 2008-9 to over 40% in the first months of the new service.

That means that Calderdale has already reached national targets set by the Government for 2010 a year early, and we're well on the way towards the 2015 target of 45%.

Over 60% of the waste that is taken to Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) is now being recycled; that's up from around 40% before. Now less than half of our waste is going to landfill, this is a far cry from last year, when nearly 70% of all waste was sent to landfill.
