Daventry District and Northampton prepare for change in waste and recycling services

Daventry District Council and Northampton Borough Council are gearing up for the changes to the waste and recycling services across both areas that will begin next month following the establishment of the new partnership between the two authorities and Enterprise Managed Services Ltd.
The new, seven-year partnership will begin in June.  The two authorities will share back office and management functions for these services and make significant financial savings while providing high quality, effective local services.
Under the new arrangements, waste and recycling collections will now take place six-days a week, Monday to Saturday, across both areas. This means that collection days will change for many people.
Brown bins will be collected fortnightly in Northampton and most residents in the borough will be able to put out all their recyclables, whatever the material, every week.
