A waste strategy has been drawn up by Reigate and Banstead Borough Council to improve recycling in the borough.

The Eastern Surrey Waste Strategy was established with Mole Valley and Tandridge District Councils and local amenity groups, in a partnership formed during the successful campaign to prevent the Copyhold incinerator being built in Redhill.

The council and its partners believe a co-ordinated recycling project will help stave off the threat of an incinerator for good.

The strategy sets out a plan of action for the three districts, including residents and businesses, to reduce waste and to recycle and re-use.
