Waste and population in Tewkesbury

Tewkesbury Borough Council serves a population of around 95,000 people across towns such as Tewkesbury, Bishop’s Cleeve, and Winchcombe, along with surrounding villages in Gloucestershire. The borough combines historic market towns with rural countryside and expanding residential developments.

The borough generates tens of thousands of tonnes of household waste each year, typically in the region of 35,000–50,000 tonnes across general refuse, recycling, and garden waste collections. Waste levels reflect a growing population and a strong residential base.

Waste output is influenced by commuter living, new housing developments, and a high proportion of family homes with gardens. These factors contribute to steady waste generation, with gradual increases as the borough continues to expand.
