It will be collected each week
A trial starting in part of Nottingham next month will see changes to the way in which waste is collected from around 3,500 households. Nottingham City Council says it is aiming to roll out a pilot food waste collection service in the Berridge area, near Bobbers Mill.
Councillor Sally Longford, the portfolio holder for energy, environment and waste at Nottingham City Council, discussed the start of the trial at a meeting on February 8. Councillor Longford said: "Part of [the trial] will be to try and work out the best way to communicate to people what is needed and how it is going to happen.
Explaining the purpose of the trial previously, Nottingham City Council said: "Up to 37% in weight of the household rubbish put into our green bins in Nottingham is food waste. Collecting food waste separately from all other waste has many benefits. The food waste collection trial is part of wider efforts to try and improve the recycling rate across Nottingham. The city council has recently held a public consultation on the future of recycling in Nottingham, which "exceeded expectations" by receiving more than 3,600 responses.
