A crucial part of the Southdowns recycling and waste strategy is to reduce and reuse rubbish
We have produced literature to give practical advice to householders on how to cut their rubbish, we are supporting reuse at the Household Waste Recycling Sites and forging links with reuse charities, and we are committed to supporting and promoting local waste and education schemes.
What you can do: reduce your rubbish by buying items which contain less packaging, or choosing reusable goods instead of disposable.
To avoid the use of landfill and increase recycling and recovery via:
Reduce and reuse initiatives
Sorting of dry recyclables
Composting of green garden waste
Energy Recovery
Waste which isn’t separated for recycling or composting by the householder will be used to recover energy.
