Plastics
In May 2011 a wider range of plastic items were added to the orange sacks and recycling banks service. Information in leaflets and printed on recycling sacks and banks is being updated.
Please recycle all the plastic items mentioned above. Disregard the material ID codes you might see on packaging, usually shown as a number within a triangle.
