In the autumn of 2024 we asked residents for their views onhow Cornwall canreduce waste and recycle more over the next ten years.
To comply with new legislation and meet national targets set by the Government, the Council will need to make changes to its waste services in the coming years.
Weekly food waste and fortnightly rubbish and recycling collections are currently being introduced across Cornwall, area by area. This has already resulted in people recycling more and there will be no changes to the roll-out schedule.
However, to meet the Government’s target to reuse, recycle or compost 65% of household waste by 2035 and to comply with planned changes in legislation, including what materials are collected,changes will be required in the longer-term.
You could give your feedback on the Council’s existing waste servicesand what more we can do to encourage waste reduction, reuse and recycling in future by completing a survey, which was available between 14 October and 24 November 2024.
