Why Waste Collections Are Not Getting Any Cheaper, Despite Increased Recycling

2013-07-08

Less waste is being landfilled with each passing year, as the Landfill tax increases by GBP8.00 per tonne every April. This waste is increasingly diverted towards Materials Recovery Facilities (MRFs), Electricity from Waste (EfW) plants and Anaerobic Digestion ( ADVERTISEMENT) websites, where recyclable material is divided or energy recovered from the waste. Such facilities have cropped up throughout the UK to fulfill this need, with many more currently working their way through the planning application system.
