The next step for Wirral Council appointing a contractor to operate its Recycling, Waste and Street Cleansing service from August 2027 has been reached today with the publishing of ‘Invitation to Tender’ documents.
At the next meeting of the Environment, Climate Emergency and Transport Committee, members will consider an update on the council’s new five-year Waste and Street Cleansing Strategy – entitled ‘Rethinking Waste: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recover 2025-2030’.
