Recycling

Kent County Council has set an objective to reduce the amount of waste it produces. In doing so we have highlighted the need to make reduction and re-use our priority. We will achieve this through buying more efficiently, promoting waste minimisation campaigns and making more efficient use of IT.

As a household you can achieve waste reduction through the principles of reduce, reuse and recycle. To find out more visit our recycling page.
