Falkirk Waste and Litter Consultation

Help shape the future of waste and environmental services in Falkirk.

Falkirk Council is reviewing how we deliver household waste services and how we deal with wider environmental issues such as litter and fly-tipping. We want to make sure that the services we provide reflect the priorities of local residents, while also making best use of the public resources available to us. This consultation gives you the opportunity to share your views and help guide the decisions we take in the months ahead.

We are particularly interested in your opinions on six important areas of service delivery. These include the operation of Household Waste Recycling Centres, the future approach to garden waste and bulky item collection services, how we tackle fly-tipping and littering in our communities, the role and number of litter bins and bring sites across the Council area, our enforcement priorities, and the potential introduction of a rapid-response Environmental Hit Squad.

Your feedback will be used to shape how we improve services, focus resources where they are most needed, and decide fairly what should be funded through Council Tax and what should be charged for separately.
