Waste management
Welcome to Warrington Borough Council's waste and recycling website

Why should I recycle?
On average a UK household produces over one tonne of rubbish a year.
You can help to reduce the amount of waste you produce and recycle more, so that less waste goes to landfill.
Warrington residents are currently recycling and composting over 40% of their household waste, but the remaining is still going to landfill. We still need to work together to continue to increase recycling and reduce the amount of waste we produce. Help us reach our target to recycle and compost 55% of our waste by 2020 and reduce waste produced by each household.
We have now introduced a three-bin household refuse and recycling scheme

We have three Community Recycling Centres in Warrington to help residents dispose and recycle their household waste.
