Harrogate Waste Management

The town of Harrogate in North Yorkshire has a population of around 75,000 and is perhaps most famous for its spa waters, which were first discovered in the 16th century. It soon became known as ‘The English Spa’ and its popularity among tourists continues to this day. Several visitors come to the town for its green spaces, including the award-winning RHS Harlow Carr Gardens. Other notable attractions include the Montpellier Quarter, where you will find Bettys Tea Rooms, the Mercer Art Gallery and the renovated Royal Baths development.

In terms of the town’s economy, the community is home to a strong and varied range of businesses. Yorkshire Tea is produced here and exported worldwide by Taylors of Harrogate. The aptly named Harrogate Spring Water enjoys notoriety around the globe too. There is also a strong agricultural presence in and around Harrogate, with the Great Yorkshire Showground hosting events like the Great Yorkshire Show, Countryside Live, and the Harrogate Flower Shows, which take place twice a year.

The Harrogate International Centre, the UK’s third largest fully integrated exhibition and conference facility, is also a key contributor to the local economy. Every year, it attracts around 350,000 business visitors and generates over £150 million. In fact, 89.2 percent of jobs in the town are in the services sector, which is higher than the UK average of 85.5 percent.

Its unique blend of history, culture and enterprise means that businesses must keep on top of their waste management duties. To this end, charges were recently introduced at a local recycling centre while businesses must pay for trade waste bin bags and collections.
