Food waste collection service – resource grant funding arrangements

From: Executive Board - Thursday, 12th June, 2025 6.00 pm - June 12, 2025

Previous reports to the Executive Board have provided background on the detail behind the Government, via the Environment Act 2021, mandating that Councils in England commence weekly food waste collections from 2026. The Council has received capital funding from Government of approximately £1.1M for the purchase of bins, kitchen caddies and vehicles, that have been procured by the Council for its full borough implementation. In accordance with the previously approved Executive Board report, a pilot food waste collection service is to be implemented for the end of May 2025, to approximately 9,000 properties, in advance of the wider borough implementation for June 2026.
