26/01/12 WRAP Publishes Eunomia Guidance on Plastic Bottle Collections

WRAP has today published a guide prepared for local authorities on kerbside plastic bottle collections. The guide has been developed to support local authorities in England and Scotland that are either planning to collect, or are currently collecting, plastic bottles at the kerbside and focuses on maximising plastic bottle material quality and/or capture rates from plastic bottle-only collection services.

This guide is targeted at senior officers within waste teams at local authorities. It aims to communicate the key messages in a digestible and concise format that can be consulted easily during busy schedules, rather than providing detailed technical guidance. However, it draws on Eunomia’s significant experience of advising local authorities on kerbside collections.

Available from the WRAP website, the guide can also be downloaded here.
