Service Standards and Strategies

The Council has produced a set of service standards and policies outlining both residents' and the Council's responsibilities to Waste Management and Street Cleansing.

Lancashire's Waste Strategy ensures a county-wide strategic plan to manage Lancashire's waste, ensuring we reduce, reuse and recycle, keeping the amount sent to landfill to an absolute minimum.

Your Guide to Recycling and Waste Collection

The Council produces information guides for residents with regards to managing their waste and also provides a collection calendar for every property in the Borough.

Enforcement Action

Council Enforcement Officers divide their time between advising residents and businesses to manage their waste and investigating incidents of flytipping.

Flytipping ranges from a single bag of rubbish, a van load of building rubble/garden waste, to the growing trend of truckloads of waste being tipped.

Fly-tipping, whatever it's size is illegal!
