The new waste contract is designed to deliver savings on the current cost of the service, increase recycling on the Island and minimise the amount of household waste sent for landfill – with a target of 90 per cent diversion from landfill by 2020. It replaces the existing integrated waste management contract which has been operated by Island Waste Services (a subsidiary of Biffa Ltd) since 1997. Image: Alan Stanton under CC BY 2.0
