How can householders/businesses reduce their waste stream further through good design and management practices?
• Separate as many recyclable wastes as possible into containers. • Purchase locally produced products with minimal packaging and use more durable products. • Arrange for bulk purchasing through a number of households or businesses. • Invest in composting bins, allowing sufficient external space. • Be aware of charity/community recycling networks which can provide door-to-door or kerbside collection of materials/clothes, often where local authority services do not yet operate.
