Consultation on options for waste and recycling services

Help to shape the future of your waste and recycling collections by completing our options consultation survey.

We want to create a new single waste and recycling service for the whole of Westmorland and Furness, to deliver collection services that:

  • are more reliable
  • are most effective
  • are better for the environment
  • make it easier for people to recycle more and waste less

Following recent feedback from local residents, we've drawn up a number of options that will help us to make a decision about the waste and recycling services. 

Information about the current arrangements for waste and recycling and the options we've proposed.

Options Consultation Survey

We launched the consultation on Wednesday 14 May 2025, which runs for eight weeks. 

You can participate by completing our online survey. 

The consultation and the survey will close on Friday, 11 July 2025.
