Around 6,000 households in Cumberland will also soon benefit from an improved kerbside recycling service. Cumberland Council has written to households in the former Allerdale and Copeland areas to update them on the expansion of the council’s kerbside service.
Some rural households will have recycling collected for the first time, and some will have their service expanded to the whole list of recyclables, including TetraPak, plastics, tin, cans, glass, cardboard and paper.
Recycling bins are being delivered to households now.
