Working for us

Surrey’s 11 district and borough councils and the county council work together as the Surrey Environment Partnership to manage recycling and waste from the county’s homes. In 2022-23 Surrey’s recycling rate was 44.4%, the third highest of England’s two-tier authorities and well above the average of 42.2%.

Joint Waste Solutions delivers countywide improvement work on behalf of the partnership and manages a waste collection and street cleaning contract on behalf of four of the partners. You can read more about us including our vision and values here.
