Local bins and recycling news
AI-generated summary, reviewed before publication. Checked 18 September 2026.
Wychavon planned to delay weekly food-waste collections until April 2028, a BBC report in August 2025 said. Councillor Emma Stokes defended the timetable as protecting value for money and avoiding problems with the existing rubbish contract. She also wanted to avoid committing a future council to a long contract during local government changes. A Green councillor quoted in the report criticised wider delays, saying food was still burned rather than recycled. Stokes said separating food could help households notice what they throw away. At the time, the council was awaiting the government’s response to its request for extra time.
