Work has already started for Lancashire councils in looking at buying new caddies, bins and lorries
Lancashire households could see a shake-up in bin collections by councils, with new kitchen caddies, community bins and bin lorries collecting food waste each week.
The government has introduced a new law, meaning councils - and households - will have to separate food waste from other waste by 2026. But work has already started for Lancashire councils in looking at buying new caddies, bins and lorries. A new Pendle Executive report for the executive states: "The Environment Act of 2021 introduced changes to waste collection. It means that recyclable household waste, includes food waste, has to be collected separately from other household waste. Food waste must be collected at least once a week.
Lancashire County Council has redeveloping a reclamation facility in Farington, near Leyland, to take food waste,. But it will not be providing any other sites for food. Each district council will have to deliver food waste there.
