Waste Paper
The importance of waste paper cannot be stressed too strongly.
The Council are making every effort to stimulate a keen interest in
the salvaging of all types of paper and cardboard. Sacks are
supplied to encourage householders to keep paper separate from
other types of salvage and refuse. It is hoped that, with the cooperation
of all concerned, the tonnage of paper collected will
increase considerably during the coming year.
Kitchen Waste
During the year, 844 tons of kitchen waste were collected.
Under instructions from the Board of Trade, this was sold to
Tottenham Borough Council for £3,434. The material is collected
throughout the Borough on Monday mornings.
Individual kitchen waste containers are supplied on request
by the Borough Engineer.
