Figures for Total Household waste by Local Authority for 2019/20, 2020-21 and 2021-22 can be found in Table 1 of the dataset published here.

Defra do not publish figures for total waste deposited at HWRC’s by Local Authority.

This information can be derived from WasteDataFlow Question level data published on Gov.uk for 2019/20, 2020-21 and 2021-22.

Data for 2022-23 will be published in 2024.
