Residents will also be provided with an initial roll of caddy liners to help them get started, the council said.
Waste such as plate scrapings, peelings, tea bags, coffee grounds and other items can be placed in the liner, tied up, and transferred to the outdoor caddy for the weekly collection.
Collected food waste will then be sent to a specialist anaerobic digestion facility, where it will be converted into renewable energy and nutrient-rich fertiliser, helping to support local farming and power homes and businesses.
The council’s cabinet member for environment and waste, Councillor Rhys Baker, said: “Many residents are already enthusiastic recyclers and I am sure they will embrace this new system to see where it can take us.
“This is a simple change with a powerful impact. Together, we can reduce waste, generate clean energy, and make Lincolnshire greener for generations to come.”
East Lindsey, Boston and South Holland are expected to roll out their own food waste collection service in the autumn.
