Waste Strategy
This Joint Municipal Waste Management Strategy for Herefordshire and Worcestershire sets out the waste management problems we face, looks at our success to date, where we are now and how we can move forward.

Waste Contract
The waste contract enables the Council's waste strategy for the management of household waste in Herefordshire and Worcestershire to be implemented.  It includes the provision of Household Recycling Centres, transfer stations, a landfill site and a range of treatment and disposal methods.

Commercial Waste
If you generate waste from a business, it is classified as commercial waste and cannot be disposed of in your normal 'household waste' bin, recycling bin/ bags or deposited at Household Recycling Centres.
