Have your say on CWAC’s Waste Strategy

Cheshire West and Chester are reviewing their waste strategy, which will include how our waste, garden waste and recyclables are collected and processed. They are offering residents the opportunity to have their say by email, post, and in accessible formats.

Below is more detail, and here is a link to the consultation:

https://participatenow.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/waste-strategy-consultation

When and why is the consultation happening?
The Council is asking for views on a proposed waste strategy which will shape how the
Council delivers waste services over the next 10 years.
The ‘Don’t let your future go to waste’ consultation launches on Thursday, 21 January. The
consultation describes the current waste service in the borough, shares the challenges and
opportunities the Council faces over the next 10 years and asks for feedback on proposed
key priorities for the new Waste Strategy and options currently being considered. The scope
of the consultation includes the household waste and recycling collection service, and the
way in which the non-recycled waste is processed.
The Council’s current waste strategy was developed in 2002 and as the waste industry has
developed over this time, it’s now the right time to review it and bring forward a new waste
strategy. A new strategy is needed to ensure that our vision and priorities reflect the needs
of our communities, are aligned to emerging national plans and policies, support the climate
emergency and are delivered in a cost-effective way.

How to get involved
The eight-week consultation period starts on Thursday 21 January 2021 and closes on
Thursday 18 March 2021.
