The new financial year is a great time for new plans or projects to be implemented. Often for waste management teams, this period may include introducing new recycling schemes, supplying a new style of bin, amending waste collection methods and even supplying their residents or customers with bags to help improve waste and recycling rates.
New Year, New Waste Scheme
The government aims for all local authorities to implement food waste collections by March 2026, prompting many councils to start allocating budgets to accommodate the new collection. Alongside these collections, most authorities provide compostable liners to facilitate waste capture, boosting participation and success rates. Studies confirm that providing residents with these liners enhances success rates and reduces contamination, leading many to allocate funds for them in the new year’s budget.
Top tips to maximise budgets with the best bag
- Calculate your bin size to identify the most appropriate bag and maximise resources.
- Select the most appropriate material, typically compostable material for food waste and polythene for domestic and recycling waste.
- Consider what will go into your refuse sack, heavier material will require a stronger sack.
