⚠️ Caerphilly County Borough Council is aware of information being shared online regarding the move to three-weekly residual waste collections. We would like to address some of the concerns we have seen raised and provide clarification.

The council is working on ways to reach our statutory recycling targets, that are set 𝐛𝐲 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐡 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 . While this work is underway, 𝐧𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 . Any future changes will be communicated clearly from the council, well in advance of coming into effect.

While we understand that the changes may seem significant, many local authorities across Wales have already introduced similar collection arrangements and have seen positive results, including increased recycling rates.

Failure to achieve these Welsh Government targets could results in significant financial penalties.

Please be mindful of the information you read online and keep up to date with all proposed changes by following the official council channels.

⚠️ Mae Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili yn ymwybodol o wybodaeth sy'n cael ei rhannu ar-lein ynglŷn â newid i gasglu gwastraff gweddilliol bob tair wythnos. Hoffen ni fynd i'r afael â rhai o'r pryderon rydyn ni wedi'u gweld a rhoi eglurhad.

Mae'r Cyngor yn gweithio ar ffyrdd o gyrraedd ein targedau ailgylchu statudol, sy'n cael eu gosod 𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐋𝐲𝐰𝐨𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐲𝐦𝐫𝐮. Wrth i'r gwaith hwnnw gael ei wneud, 𝐧𝐢𝐝 𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐠𝐰𝐲𝐥 𝐢 𝐮𝐧𝐫𝐡𝐲𝐰 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐮 𝐢 𝐚𝐦𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐠𝐥𝐮 𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟 𝐚 𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟 𝐢'𝐰 𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐠𝐲𝐥𝐜𝐡𝐮 𝐠𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐮 𝐠𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮 𝐲𝐧 𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐝 𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐞𝐝𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐟. Bydd unrhyw newidiadau yn y dyfodol yn cael eu cyfleu'n glir gan y Cyngor, ymhell cyn iddyn nhw gael eu gweithredu.

Rydyn ni'n deall bod y newidiadau'n ymddangos yn rhai sylweddol, ond mae llawer o awdurdodau lleol ledled Cymru eisoes wedi cyflwyno trefniadau casglu tebyg ac wedi gweld canlyniadau cadarnhaol, gan gynnwys cyfraddau ailgylchu uwch.

Gallai methu â chyrraedd targedau Llywodraeth Cymru arwain at gosbau ariannol sylweddol.

Byddwch yn effro i wybodaeth rydych chi'n ei darllen ar-lein, a mynnu'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am bob newid arfaethedig drwy ddilyn sianeli swyddogol y Cyngor.
