Details

This is the first ever guidance issued by the government on how councils can and should deliver weekly rubbish collections. This document shows how councils can deliver a comprehensive and frequent rubbish and recycling collection service, and deliver practical savings from common sense steps that do not harm the quality of the service that local taxpayers receive.
