Stirling launched a new online waste-and-recycling portal in August 2026, bringing collection dates, recycling advice and service updates together. Residents can use its Waste Wizard to check where items belong and receive information about disruptions or garden-waste permit renewals.
The portal also includes the Sort It Stirling recycling game. Committee convener Alasdair Tollemache said the council wanted to make recycling easier and reduce contamination and costs. He encouraged residents to sign up for updates, while the technology supplier said the tools also explain reuse and disposal options. The council developed the portal with waste-technology company Routeware.
