London Waste: Household Recycling & Council Waste MCP Connector for Claude

D

Keyless London waste data: household recycling rates by area (boroughs, London, England and the regions) from 2002/03, plus the council-waste annual split — landfill, incineration with and without energy recovery, recycling — London vs England, 2000/01 to 2024/25.

7 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Two official London waste datasets — keyless, straight from the London open-data platform (data.london.gov.uk).

What you can do

  • recycling_rates / recycling_rate_lookup / recycling_ranking / recycling_latest_year — household recycling rates (% of household waste recycled) by area: the 33 London boroughs, London overall, England and the eight regions, on the 2002/03 onward series; a ranking of the areas on one year (best and worst sides) and the latest-year snapshot
  • waste_management_annual / waste_management_lookup / waste_management_overview — the annual council-waste split per person: what percentage of London's (and England's) waste went to landfill, to incineration with energy recovery, to incineration without, to recycling, and what remained unrecycled, from 2000/01 to 2024/25; the overview returns the first year, the latest year and the deltas between them

Who is this for

Urban policy researchers, sustainability teams and journalists comparing how London's waste mix has moved from landfill toward recycling. Years are stored as Excel serials in the source files; the tools map them to financial-year labels (2002/03 style, the UK fiscal year running April to March) so you filter by the label you see.

What is London's household recycling rate in 2024/25?

Call recycling_rate_lookup with area "London" and year "2024/25" — one rate for the whole city; recycling_ranking shows where London sits against England and the regions.

Which London boroughs recycle the least?

Run recycling_ranking for the latest year — the bottom of the ranking lists the boroughs with the lowest household recycling rates, with the best side alongside.

How has London's landfilling changed since 2000?

Call waste_management_overview — it returns the 2000/01 year, the 2024/25 year and the deltas: London's landfill share falls sharply over the series while the recycling share climbs.

No. data.london.gov.uk publishes every dataset as an anonymous file download (CSV or Excel). This MCP defines no credentials and needs nothing configured.
