Communal Bin Hub Pilot Survey

Communal bin hubs were installed at four locations within the city centre to pilot a new collection method. The purpose of trialling the new communal bin hubs is to gather evidence for a change in collection method. The aim of the pilot is to increase recycling opportunities and recycling rates in areas that do not have access to recycling facilities within their own household. By removing the presentation of purple sacks as a collection method there is also an anticipated decrease in occurrences of fly-tipping and litter within the street setting.
