Abstract
This paper sets out how East Ayrshire Council, a medium sized mixed/rural Scottish Unitary Authority amended and revised its household waste collection policy to accommodate alternate weekly collections for residual waste. The new service was introduced to promote and encourage maximum participation in sourceseparated household waste recycling. Before the new service was introduced, householders were able to present side waste with their wheeled bin each week.
