Charges for green bin collections will form a key part of a plans to reduce overall levels of waste in the county, according to a new report by Shropshire Council.
The authority says it wants to reduce 20 per cent of all waste produced by county households by 2030, which would remove over 26,000 tonnes of rubbish from the system.
“Recycling and composting performance has however plateaued in recent years, with outturns regularly being between 50 to 55% of waste diverted from incineration or landfill. Performance gains are becoming increasingly difficult to achieve. In its draft strategy, the authority says it has used the results of a pilot study in Bishops Castle alongside analysis of waste delivered to the Shrewsbury incinerator site to get an accurate picture of recycling habits in the county.
Other initiatives planned will include the introduction of a previously announced booking scheme for recycling centres to reduce out-of-county waste deposits, as well as campaigns around reducing food waste, which forms around a fifth of recyclable materials.
