Frequently asked questions

How many different containers will I need?

This will depend on the sorts and amounts of the waste types you produce. We can provide containers appropriate to your amounts and types of material.

You can combine card with paper, and combine plastic bottles pots, tubs, trays, bags and wrappings, cartons, glass bottles and jars, cans, tins and clean foil together.

Food waste needs a container of its own.

Contact us to find out about our range of container options so you can optimise your recycling service and make the most of the space you have available.  Recycling as much as possible will save you money, even though there are more bins to empty.
