Recycle Right 

There are five types of items that can be placed in your Yellow lid bin for recycling.

When placing items in your recycling bin please:

  • Do not place recyclable items in plastic bags
  • Flatten cardboard
  • Rinse all containers (use your washing up water when finished)
  • Remove lids from bottles and jars.
