Do not include:

  • soil, bricks and concrete
  • tyres or car parts
  • building rubble and stones
  • paints, oils or solvents
  • fixtures and fittings – bathroom fittings and kitchen units
  • batteries
  • vapes

You can take these items to your local recycling centre.

Food waste recycling trial

We are trialling a new food waste recycling collection service in some parts of the district ahead of the full countywide rollout in 2027.

We are contacting every household who is taking part in the food waste trial. If you do not receive a letter or food waste caddies, your household is not currently part of the trial, and your waste and recycling collections will remain unchanged.
