Your County - Putting Kent First

Kent 4 star Council

Kent Waste Partnership

The responsibility for household waste management in Kent is shared between the 12 district and borough councils, who collect domestic waste, and Kent County Council which is responsible for its disposal.

The Kent Waste Partnership was created in April 2007 with the purpose of ensuring 'joined up thinking' between Kent's two tiers of local government and giving the tax payers of the county the best possible service and value for money.

The Kent Waste Partnership is now approaching the end of its first year of successful operation; during this period it has undertaken a number of joint operational initiatives and has laid the foundations for future close cooperation and planning.

Benefits

  • Creation of a working partnership that has the commitment of the elected members and senior officers of all of the principal councils of Kent.
  • Increasing the public profile of waste management issues in Kent.
  • Engagement with tax payers of the county on waste recycling and minimisation issues.
