Reduce

Did you know around a third of waste thrown away in the rubbish bin in Buckinghamshire is food waste? 

Not only does this cost local taxpayers over £600,000 per year in disposal costs, but damages the environment too! 

More and more people in Buckinghamshire are using the weekly food recycling service, but with 28,000 tonnes of food waste still ending up in the rubbish bin, there is still a way to go. So whether you have never used the food recycling service, or you are a regular user but want to know exactly what can be recycled, or you want to find out what happens to the food once it's collected for recycling, these pages are for you.
