Warwickshire Recycles
From Monday 24th November, for a six-month trial, a booking will not be required to visit any household waste recycling centres. The trial aims to make the service more accessible while maintaining efficiency and safety.
Warwickshire County Council this week (14th October) expressed its preference on the future form of local government for Warwickshire to be a single unitary council.
“Under Government plans for Local Government Reorganisation, Warwick District Council, Stratford-on-Avon District Council, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council, Rugby Borough Council, North Warwickshire Borough Council and Warwickshire County Council will be abolished on 1 April 2028. They will be replaced by either one single unitary council for Warwickshire or two unitary councils – one for the North and one for the South – with each authority responsible for all services for its part of the county.”
