Being mindful of what goes in your bin

You may perhaps put your bins out weekly; general household waste should go in dark green or black wheelie bin with a red lid. You can even place small amounts of green waste in your green-lid wheelie bin - this actually helps with rubbish disposal.
Mixed waste such as recycling (glass, plastic, metal and paper combined) can go either in a dark green or black wheelie bin with a yellow lid.
Food waste should go in a rubbish bin with a burgundy lid on it whereas paper and cardboard recycling should be placed in a blue lid garbage bin.
