The bin collection in Bradford is carried out by the local council. They use waste trucks to drive to your property, pick up and empty each bin every two weeks. They alternate their collections so that one week they will dispose of your general waste and the next they will pick up your recycling and garden waste. This leaves 13 day period between your bin collections.

 

The council has moved to fortnightly collections, and has been operating in this way for some time, because of the government pressure to encourage nationwide recycling efforts. The UK government believe that by reducing how often domestic wheelie bins are emptied the public will try to reduce how much non-recyclable waste they produce.

 

The idea is that if you keep producing lots of waste and filling up your general waste bin if it’s not collected frequently it will sit there and begin to smell, look bad, and generally be a nuisance for residents. This would then encourage people to reduce this amount of waste and look to use recyclable materials and products to distribute their waste across their bins more equally.

 

But this is a problem for some households in terms of their bin collection in Bradford. In Bradford, there are a lot of larger households such as big families. These residencies can’t easily reduce how much general waste they produce. Whilst they may seek recyclable options in the things that they buy, because of how many family members there are (5+), they will inevitably produce plenty of rubbish each week.

 

For many large households, fortnightly collections won’t be enough and they will need a service similar to what the council was providing for years before.
