Residents of Chelmsford have increased their recycling rate to approximately 38% in 2009.  Well done to everyone for helping to increase Chelmsford's household recycling rate again this year. This has been achieved through the use of the kerbside collection scheme, flats collection scheme and a wider range of collection facilities across Chelmsford.
