Recycling Advice

  • recycling.
    There is no longer a requirement to put recycling into supermarket bags as the recycling contractors will separate items at the recovery centre.
  • Separate your bottles from your other recycling. Put all non-bottle recycling into your recycling bin. Glass bottles can be placed in a separate container, box or crate or on top of your other recycling.
  • All rigid plastic bottles/packaging numbered 1-6 are now accepted for recycling.
  • Do NOT include polystyrene, meat trays, cling wrap, plastic bags or plastic toys.
  • If your recycling is not picked up, a pink or orange sticker will give the reason why e.g. The products were not clean and were therefore unhygienic OR there was broken glass etc.
  • If your bin is too heavy, secure the recyclable materials into plastic bags and put them out on the footpath. The bin is for containment and convenience - if you feel the materials are safe on their own, you do not have to use the bin.
