Food Waste Collection Service

Weekly food waste collections will start from 13 October 2025

From the TVBC website:

"Every household will be given a grey 5 litre kitchen caddy to help with the collection of food waste and scraps in the home.

Every week, we will collect food waste from grey 23 litre kerbside caddies, using our new fleet of specialist collection vehicles.

Small 140 litre grey-lidded wheeled bins will be provided to residents who live in flats or other accommodation with bin stores, and who already share their waste and recycling bins.

All of the collected food waste will be processed at an anaerobic digestion facility where it will be broken down by micro-organisms in the absence of oxygen. The methane-rich biogas generated during this process can be used as a fuel and the remaining product can be used as a nutrient rich fertiliser. "
