The latest Landfill Tonnage Trends and Capacity Report is now available from Footprint Services, showing county-by-county (England) tonnage trends for waste heading to landfill and the declared capacity remaining in each county (showing data to 2020)

  • Free PDF Report available here
  • Free Interactive Dashboard reporting available here

In 2020, almost 40 million tonnes of waste was received at landfill sites in England as:

  • Hazardous: 826,000 tonnes
  • Inert: 15,4850,000 tonnes
  • Non-Inert: 22,946,000 tonnes
  • Restricted: 546,000 tonnes

(the categories above refer to the stated type of landfill rather than necessarily the waste type.  Thus, it is possible that some inert waste ended up in a non-inert landfill)
