Recycling

Help protect our environment today, for tomorrow, with these three simple steps when recycling:

1. Check - can this item by recycled?
2. Clean - clean all plastics, bottles, tins, cans and jars
3. Go Green - help protect the environment and our future!

Only recyclable items are to go into your black bin. All non-recyclable items are to be disposed of in your red wheelie bin.

All cardboard and paper must be flattened and placed in your black bin.
