Get the Right stuff in the Right bin. Recycling saves resources and helps protect the environment.
The purple bin (or communal bin with purple lid) is for general waste that cannot be recycled.
It is collected fortnightly - find your collection day.
Remember:
Put your general waste in bags before you bin it. This will prevent items such as wrappers or ash blowing away during emptying.
Waste should fit in the bin under a closed lid. We will not collect any bags from beside or on top of your bin.
Heavier items such as bricks or turf should go to a recycling centre.
For larger items, arrange a special uplift or take them to a recycling centre.
Plastic bottles and containers, glass, paper, cardboard, and cans go in the grey recycling bin.
