Waste Collection

Collecting and disposing of waste in the Borough responsibly and sustainably is an important part of making sure we all enjoy a good quality of life. It includes a careful mix of recycling and re-using, and disposing of what's left to Energy Recovery. The good news is that this means very little of the Borough's household waste is sent to landfill.

Our current recycling and composting rate is more than 32% a month – one of the highest rates in Hampshire. In this part of the website, you can find out more about collection, recycling, re-using and disposal.

Fareham Borough Council is beginning its preparations to introduce 'Simpler Recycling' to Fareham from 31 March 2026.
