What is WasteSupport?
Developed by CIWM in partnership with ESA and other leading public and private sector organisations, WasteSupport is a new, free online platform which provides a fully searchable sharing forum. It enables local authorities facing resource challenges during the COVID-19 crisis to indicate where they need service capacity support, as well as other requirements such as PPE or vehicle maintenance engineers. Commercial waste collection firms with surplus capacity will also be able to use the platform to indicate those services they are able to supply, thereby providing a ‘virtual marketplace’ to facilitate sharing.
WasteSupport is only accessible to local authorities and licenced/permitted commercial waste companies, and everyone who signs up to use it will have to prove their credentials in order to access the full site.
