New bins will be delivered to people living in the Kings Langley area over the coming weeks.

Households will receive new blue lidded bins for mixed recycling, a kerbside caddy for food waste and a free roll of 52 kitchen caddy liners.

Residents will find an information pack attached to the blue lidded bin which fully explains the changes to the waste collection service. 

The improved service will give residents extra space to recycle even more items such as cardboard, food and drink cartons and clean aluminium foil and trays. 

The council hopes the new service could result in reduction in the amount of waste sent to landfill and increase the amount recycled by the borough to 60 per cent.
