This week we began delivering food waste caddies to homes across Dartford.

From November 2026 we will be running food waste collection from houses across Dartford, with communal food waste services for flats comming into effect in early 2027.

Households will have two caddies. One is an indoor caddy to use inside their homes and one is a lockable outdoor caddy to leave outside for collections that has been designed so that foxes and other pests can't get inside.

Ahead of the new service, find out what goes in your food waste bin.
