Organic waste pilot going ‘very well’

Published 26th October 07

Harrow Council has announced that a trial to increase the amount of kitchen and garden waste that can be recycled is going ‘very well’.

In the last week, the pilot scheme has already taken 80 tonnes of organic waste to an alternative recycling plant in Envar, near Peterborough.

Councillor Susan Hall, Portfolio Member for Environment Services said:

"This is a great victory for the residents of Harrow and means that the council can continue our recycling revolution.

"In the last two years, Harrow's residents have increased the amount they recycle by 20%. This pilot scheme means that we can now keep pace with this rapidly rising rate of recycling.

"This is testament to the hard work the council's waste team and their work with our contractor West London Composting."
