Waste collection service policy 2016 - Policies and strategies
- Description
-
This policy specifies Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council’s methods for dealing with recycling and refuse collections. The policy has been written to:
- Support the implications of local, national and European pressures for change to reduce the amount of biodegradable waste that is sent to landfill
- Address tightening health and safety law. This means moving from manual to mechanical handling operations wherever possible
- Ensure that the Council maintains safe, economic and efficient recycling and waste collections
