WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.1 define how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, hearing, mobility, and cognitive impairments.

We use semantic HTML, informative headings, and descriptive text so that users who rely on screen readers can navigate pages, understand content, and access details about our waste collection services in a logical order.

Images that convey information are given alternative text where possible, and we avoid using images of text where a text alternative would be more accessible.
