Recycling & Waste Talks and Activities

The team are happy to visit your local community group to provide more information about recycling and waste reduction.

Talks and Presentations

Talks are available to any local community groups to discuss waste minimisation and recycling topics and the recycling services provided by West Lothian Council. Topics covered include:

  • What can be recycled in West Lothian
  • What happens to recycled materials once West Lothian Council collects it
  • Waste and recycling legislation

Each talk can be tailored to suit your group's time and information requirements. The Waste Education Team can travel to your group and provide all presentation equipment and information.
