WasteMINZ have recently published the Organic Waste Collection and Processing Guidance for Local Authorities that was produced by Eunomia with support from Waste Not Consulting and Sunshine Yates Consulting, with funding and support from the WasteMINZ Territorial Authority Officers (TAO) forum.

The guide takes a deep dive into what makes a kerbside organics service successful, providing evidence from local and international case studies of high-performing services, to help councils determine how to design and run a service that best serves their unique communities.

The guide provides a step-by-step framework all the way from planning to operating a kerbside organics service. It takes the user through the journey from understanding the needs of their region and communities, collection and processing options, how to procure the different aspects of the service, and how to implement and monitor the service for on-going success.
