Blue lidded bin

How to use your blue lidded wheeled bin

You can recycle

  • glass and plastic bottles and jars (including lids)
  • tins and cans
  • plastic food containers (but not plastic film or bag)
  • cartons (tetra packs)

Unwanted plastics (we can't recycle these)

Thin plastics like bread bags, grape bags, magazine wraps, crisp bags, frozen vegetable bags, shrink wrap plastic that might hold 6 cans of baked beans etc.

 

Example: If you buy a tub of tomatoes the wrapping is refuse but the tub is recyclable

 

Please remember

  • Place everything loose in your new bin
  • Rinse out all containers
  • Place jar lids in your recycling bin
  • Please remove bottle tops but still put them in
  • Bins contaminated with refuse will not be emptied
