Blackpool has developed fully integrated online processes for its high-volume waste management transactions, including bulky waste collection requests, missed bin reports and fly-tipping notifications. This case study forms part of our digital experts resource.
This has allowed the council to achieve a significant shift to online self-service, saving money but also offering greater convenience to residents. Blackpool has also been exploring web chat for school admissions.
