Cumbria County Council, as the waste disposal authority, is responsible for the disposal of household rubbish and for providing fourteen Household Waste Recycling Centres for householders to recycle and dispose of their rubbish.

Cumbria's district councils are responsible for waste collection services, including weekly collections of household waste, special collections for bulky household items and the recycling of rubbish. They provide your household recycling collection service and manage recycle points at places such as local supermarkets and car parks.

Together the seven Cumbrian authorities make up Resource Cumbria which is Cumbria's strategic waste partnership. Our partnership website recycleforcumbria.orgthis external link will open in a new window is your one stop shop for all recycling service information in Cumbria.
