Recycling (Blue lid bin)
You can put the following in your blue lid recycling bin:
- food and drink cans
- plastic packaging (including yogurt and margarine pots, plastic food trays and plastic bottles)
- glass bottles and jars
- aerosol cans (empty)
Make sure you break up any items, squash cans and plastic bottles etc to maximise the amount of recycling you can fit in your bin.
Do you want to increase your recycling, but your blue bin is always full? Request a bigger blue bin.

Recycling symbols appear on lots of everyday items and help us to identify how different types of packaging can be recycled. Find out more about on-pack recycling symbols
