Waste Management Planning Guide (Former Chiltern, South Bucks & Wycombe areas)

Last updated: 1 November 2021 Waste Management Planning Guide (pdf, 502.8 KB)

Foreword

This document has been designed to advise developers on the provisions that need to be made for the containment, storage and collection of waste, including the separation of recyclable materials. It provides localised guidance in respect to current waste services provided by the Joint Waste Team on behalf of Buckinghamshire Council. This document tries to make the distinction between the two waste collection services currently in operation servicing the Chiltern, South Bucks & Wycombe Areas. Key points for consideration have been presented within three sections:

1. New build houses
2. Communal developments
3. Collection of containers

The Joint Waste Team can provide free planning consultation to enable developers to design suitable waste management solutions.
