To ensure we can continue to prioritise our teams on essential duties, garden waste collections are suspended.
We have lots of information on our website about home composting, including how you can get started composting your garden waste and uncooked kitchen waste at home.
The Household Waste Recycling Centre (or 'tidy tip') on Barkers Lane remains closed for the safety of residents and site staff.
Please do not visit the site or leave any waste outside the site entrance.
If you are having a clear out, please store your unwanted items at home, or create a compost pile for any garden waste.
If you love food and hate waste, here are some top tips for you.
Storing food correctly keeps it good to eat for as long as possible, and is a crucial way to prevent food from going to waste. It also has the added bonus of saving us money.
Most fruit and vegetables, for example, last longer in the fridge, with a few key exceptions. The Love Food Hate Waste Food Storage A–Z has information about how best to keep your food in tip-top condition.
Another great top tip is to keep your fridge at 0–5°C, as food can perish quicker if your fridge is too warm. You can check how to adjust your fridge temperature using the online Chill The Fridge Out tool.
The Love Food Hate Waste website has a huge variety on tips and information to help us all keep our food for longer and make it go further, so why not visit the Love Food Hate Waste website to find some new ways to make the most of your food.
