Reducing waste

There are plenty of things that you can do to reduce the amount of waste that you put out for collection and which goes to landfill. With landfill sites filling up rapidly, it is really important that everyone plays their part in reducing the amount of waste they create.

The pages listed in the menu on the left give you some tips on how to reduce and reuse your waste as well as further information about recycling and what the county is doing to combat unnecessary waste.

See also our Garden waste pages for details about how you can compost your garden waste and our Recycling pages to find out how you can reycle more of your waste. Find out also about our involvement on the Oxfordshire Waste Partnership.

If you want to know how you can do more to reduce, re-use and recycle please call Oxfordshire County Council on 08450 50 45 50 for a free waste reduction pack.
