Waste Collection & Recycling

Fareham Borough Council is committed to providing reliable household waste, recycling and food waste collection services for residents across Fareham.

We collect your general waste and dry mixed recycling from the kerbside on alternate weeks, with food waste collected every week.

Our aim is to make it easy for residents to recycle as much as possible and reduce the amount of waste thrown away. Waste that cannot be recycled is managed in the best way possible to minimise its impact on the environment.

Together, these services help reduce the amount of waste sent for disposal, increase recycling and support a more sustainable future for Fareham. By working together, we can recycle more, throw away less and help keep Fareham a clean and attractive place to live.
