Waste Strategy Review
Since 2002, County Durham’s waste services have been working towards implementing the County Durham Joint Municipal Waste Strategy. This helps direct the work of the County Council and the seven district/borough councils as they work to bring effective collection, treatment and disposal services to all households in the County. The original waste strategy was developed in consultation with residents and other stakeholders in the county. The replies to that consultation endorsed the view that the strategy should focus on waste reduction and awareness, recycling and other sustainable waste treatment methods.
