What's not allowed in my blue lid recycling bin.
We can’t recycle the things below (shown with a red cross), so please don’t put them in your blue lid bin. Sorry, but if we see any of them in your recycling bin, we won’t empty it and you’ll need to take them out before we can empty your bin on your next collection.
