How is the local authority in Twickenham handling your waste?

Cardboard and paper collected products from blue bins are transported to the councils depot in Craneford Way, and then to Newport paper mills where they are reprocessed into recycled paper products. Richmond Upon Thames council works with a private contractor to transport other dry recycling collected from black boxes in bulk loads to a sorting plant in Mansfield. At this stage any residual waste contaminants that might be present are removed and sent to an energy recovery facility. Another sorting plant in Leeds separates different types of plastics into PET bottles, pots, tubs and trays. Bulk loads of plastic, glass aluminium and steel are then marketed and sold on to companies who will transform the materials into end products, or sell them onto other companies where they are not able to remanufacture them. All the end markets for recyclables are within the EU with the exception of some steel which is sold and recycled internationally.

Food waste material which is collected from Green boxes in Twickenham is delivered to the West London Waste Authority (WLWA) in Hounslow who delivers the material to the anaerobic waste facility in Mitcham, where it is treated to produce gas which is fed into the national grid, and biofertilizer for crops and farmland. Similarly, general rubbish is used to generate electricity, and garden waste is used to enrich the soil by being composted.

· Overall annual spend on waste management £54,383,813

What are the plans for a greener future in Twickenham?

The West London Waste Authority provides plenty of helpful tips and information on their website for residents in Twickenham and Richmond Upon Thames on reducing waste and taking part in community reuse and recycle schemes on the WLWA website. One such initiative that individuals and families can do at home is to start to change their everyday habits around accumulating waste in the first place. This can be achieved by small incremental actions that add up to have a big impact on the amount of waste that individual households produce and will significantly reduce the overall amount of waste that needs to be collected. There are several ways in which residents can start to reduce the amount of rubbish generated on a daily basis by bringing less waste into the home through making better buying choices, repairing items and planning meals in advance to reduce food waste, which can cause harm to the environment if it ends up in landfill. Residents can also access community reuse and recycling schemes via the local authority website such as Richmond Freegle, the Richmond furniture recycling scheme,and the TRAID clothing collections scheme.
