Additional recycling must be in either black recycling boxes, open cardboard boxes or clear bags and put out alongside the recycling wheelie bin. However, for safety reasons, glass bottles and jars should only be placed in a black box.
Indoor food caddies can also be left out for collection alongside outdoor food waste bins.
Cllr Steve Good, Cabinet Member for the Environment said, “The festive period is a particularly busy time for our waste collection teams, but we want to do all we can to support residents who are keen to recycle.”
