Issue details

The report sets out the proposed increase in waste collection charges (where the Council may make a charge for waste collection/commercial collections) from April 2019.  This includes services provided, on request, to charities, non-domestic/non commercial premises and commercial establishments in Sheffield.  The report recommends an increase in charges by 4.0% (and rounded to the nearest pound) to reflect the increased cost to the Council in delivering these services.  The report also recommends that future annual price increases (to apply from April each year) will be directly linked to that year’s January Retail Price Index (RPIX) figure.
