ABOUT US

Salford City Council’s Waste and Recycling service provides a range of domestic waste, trade waste and recycling collections to approximately 260,000 residents and 125,000 premises. These services include food & garden recycling, pulpable & comingled recycling, domestic & business waste collections, bulky household collections and bin deliveries. In order to deliver these essential services, we have a dedicated team who provide all the facilities and information for our customers to enable them to manage their waste correctly. Although we have increased recycling rates significantly over the last few years our aim is to improve on those achievements further.
We currently have an exciting vacancy within our team to enable us to continue to build on our success and also bring new experience, knowledge and ideas into the team.
