CONSULTATION ON WASTE BIN CHARGES

Cheshire East Council is consulting on whether to introduce charges for new and replacement waste bins. The council currently spends £360,000 per year on providing new and replacement bins, which it says is unsustainable. It is proposing to introduce charges as follows: £30 for green and silver recycling bins and £35 for standard black bins. They are also proposing to put addresses on the bins, to help discourage theft. The consultation can be completed online from Tuesday 13th March using the following link: (https://surveys.cheshireeast.gov.uk/s/Bins18/

    1. Hi Paul,

      I don’t think they have considered this yet, but it is definitely something you should raise as part of your response to the consultation.

      Kind regards,
      Craig
