Useful Tips - Green Bin

  • Rinse all food & drink containers
  • Squash cans, boxes & cartons
  • Do not put any glass in your green bin
  • Not all plastics are recyclable - containers/bottles with the following symbols are recycled in this scheme: PET 1, HDPE 2, LDPE 4
  • Ensure your bin is fully closed and do not leave any materials next to or on top of your bin.  Under current Local Authority Bye-Laws this is an offence and you may be issued with a fine by the Council.  For more information on Bye Laws please follow the appropriate link:

 

All bins - black, green and brown, must be fully closed and not overloaded when presented for collection.   Please ensure your bin is left out on time each week as the company cannot guarantee collection for missed deliveries due to your bin not being out on time on collection day.
