Welcome to the Waste Aware Falkirk website. Did you know that the residents of Falkirk produce in excess of 95, 000 tonnes (that is equivalent of 11875 double decker buses) of waste each year?
Falkirk Council now has one of the highest recycling rates in Scotland. We are recycling just over 40% of waste, a fantastic achievement! However, there is still more to do. Scotland has new challenging recycling targets; we need to recycle and compost 50% of waste by 2013 and 70% by 2025.
The following pages will help you to reduce, reuse and recycle your waste.
