A concept testing for the communal bin review project has been implemented in Albert Street to test the project aims:

Increase and improve recycling services to residents in multi-occupancy and flatted properties providing fully integrated waste and recycling service (each location aiming to have residual waste, recycling, food waste and glass)

Improve overall recycling performance, customer satisfaction and service reliability

Actions and decisions are red italic.
