Recycling FAQs

Why can't I have one bin for all recycling?

There are pros and cons to both systems. For a one bin recycling system where you put all your recycling into one container you need the additional multi-million pound infrastructure to sort the recycling that is done already at kerbside when we collect your recycling with boxes and bags. On the other hand, the convenience of a single recycling bin is considered attractive by residents compared to boxes and bags.
