Basildon Borough Council, GB conducts food waste collection pilot ahead of national policy change

Basildon Borough Council, GB Food Waste Collection Pilot

The council selected 100 properties across five streets for the six-week pilot. A project team collects food waste from council-supplied bins on weekly pickup dates. Basildon Borough Council uses participant surveys plus data gathered with each collection to inform future iterations of the program. This pilot is part of the borough's effort to comply with a national mandate for dedicated food waste collection by 2023.
