How we manage our waste
We must change how we manage our waste as there are UK and European laws that limit the amount of rubbish that can be put in landfill sites.
- Waste management strategy
- Our joint Municipal Waste Management Strategy for 2006–2020, produced in partnership with the East Sussex district and borough councils.
- How we decide what to do with our waste
- Find out how our Waste Local Plan, UK and European law and regulation by the Environment Agency affect the decisions we make about waste disposal.
- What happens to our waste
- We have been set challenging targets to increase recycling and recovery, and to reduce the amount of rubbish that goes untreated to landfill. Find out how we plan to meet these targets and about the facilities we use for waste disposal.
- Tackling our waste issues together
- This partnership project aims to identify some of the issues and problems of waste produced in both East Sussex and Smédar in France, and provide solutions that lessen impact on the environment.
