Which container?
Cardboard is collected in the yellow bag on the household collection service. If you have more than will fit in the bag, you can order an additional yellow bag.
What paper can I recycle?
Yes please…
- Cereal boxes
- Frozen food boxes
- Pizza boxes
- Tea bag boxes
- Greetings cards
- Brown paper and brown envelopes - find out why these items can't go in the blue bag
Large cardboard boxes which do not fit in your yellow bag(s) can be left next to your red boxes - but they must be flattened to no larger than 2ft x 2ft.
Please also remove any packaging such as polystyrene, plastic film/wrapping and any plastic straps. We can only collect clean cardboard (without any food left on it).
No thanks…
- Cartons/Tetra Paks e.g. fruit juices and UHT milk cartons.
- Un-flattened cardboard
- Polystyrene, plastic straps or plastic wrapping
You can recycle beverage cartons (Tetra Paks) at various bring to sites in the district as we cannot accept these at the kerbside.
