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
  • Visit www.fylde.gov.uk/whichbin for a full list of recyclable items
