Did you know that rotting food in landfill generates methane – a greenhouse gas that is 21 times more potent than carbon dioxide? Because of this, our food waste can have a significant impact on the environment.
That's why we have made changes to the way we collect your food waste so that you can recycle more and we can process it in a more environmentally friendly way.
All you need to do is empty food waste from your plate and peelings into your kitchen caddy and put it out for collection. Your food waste will be collected every week on the same day as your normal recycling and refuse collections.
