Dry mixed recycling

Instructions for collection

  1. All recycling should be placed in the clear recycling bags provided.
  2. All dry recyclables can be mixed into the same bag - there is no need to sort different materials into separate bags.
  3. You can put out as many recycling bags for collection as you wish.​​​​​
  4. If you have any large cardboard items, please flatten, then tie or tape into manageable amounts, and put these underneath your tied recycling bags. If the cardboard is too wet to lift, this will not be taken away. 
  5. Keep all of your recycling bags within your property boundary until collection day.
  6. On your collection day, leave your tied recycling sacks at the end of your property boundary before 6am.
  7. If you do not have a front garden, leave the tied sacks on the pavement no earlier than 5.30pm the evening before collection day.

Assisted collections

Residents who can't physically move their recycling to the property boundary, and have no one to help, can request an assisted collection from their front door.
