Recycling Collection FAQs
You can recycle
- glass and plastic bottles and jars (including lids)
- tins and cans
- plastic food containers (but not plastic film or bag)
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.
