Recycling problems in Gloucester

Recyclable waste is currently being collected but all thrown into the same bin lorry, to be sorted into different types once back at the depot.

The contractor Amey, which collects rubbish for Gloucester City Council, is in breach of its contract, according to the council's cabinet member for the Environment.

Recyclable waste is currently being collected but all thrown into the same bin lorry, to be sorted into different types once back at the depot.

Councillor Richard Cook says this is yet another breach of contract by Amey, which could mean the whole contract is in jeopardy.

The reason for the change to collections is a lack of bin lorry drivers.
