Recycling information
- Always rinse your glass bottles/jars, cans, cartons, plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, and foil trays, as we cannot recycle any items containing food waste
- Ensure all items are placed loose inside the blue and brown wheeled bins, as plastic bags can’t be recycled
- All food waste should be separated and placed in your food waste caddy, which is collected every week from the FRONT edge of your property
- Household batteries can be recycled in a battery bag or a clear sandwich bag. Please place on top of the blue or brown bin for collection
