What commercial waste management services do you provide in Northallerton? 
Who manages Northallerton’s domestic waste?

Northallerton’s household waste collections were managed by Hambleton District Council who had made bold statements in regards to their approach to protecting the local environment.

Northallerton’s domestic waste is now managed by North Yorkshire Council.

How much household waste is collected in Northallerton?

The collection authority undertook just under 40,000 collections from in and around the area for nearly 90,000 people in Northallerton, Bedale, Easingwold, Thirsk and Stokesley. The Hambleton District Council (now part of North Yorkshire Council) had been committed to transforming how household waste was collected and where it would go, with the aim of reducing the amount sent to landfill and increasing the amount sent for reuse.

How are waste collection services being improved in Northallerton?

Major changes that Hambleton District Council made to their waste collection service included introducing a new 240-litre black bin for commingled recyclables, replacing the blue boxes (which are now used solely for glass). New waste collection vehicles were also rolled out to deal with larger volumes of waste, the new trucks have been specially adapted for their roles and means that commingled recyclable materials can be kept separate from the glass throughout the collection process.

What waste strategies are in place in Northallerton to reduce household landfill usage?

In 2006, recycling, composting and reuse rates in the area were at a respectable 44.27%, this figure rose slightly to 46.30% in 2008/09, but then plateaued for the years following. The introduction of new recycling service, however, revitalised enthusiasm in the community for the environment and also made it easier for residents to recycle their waste.

Figures rose to an all-time high in 2015/16 as 54.10% of all household waste was sent for composting, reuse or recycling – topping all the authorities in the Yorkshire and Humberside region. Since then, rates have plateaued once more, but have stayed around a rate of 48%, several points higher than the national average.
