What do you throw away as you cannot put it in the council recycling bins, but that could be recycled?
Have a look at the list, and take these items to the ‘bin’ outside the Methodist Chapel – instead of throwing them away !
Recycling Update!
We’ve been sent an update on the recycling for charity scheme – here are some key points:
- Lots of the packaging could be taken to Morrisons / Tesco… but what gets collected in this scheme earns money for charity.
- Empty toothpaste tubes are no longer collected (though our correspondent was assured these can go in kerbside (ie home) recycling)
- Toothbrushes are collected (those with plastic handles as well as small ones that go in an electric toothbrush)
- As a rough guide on plastic wrappings – bags for ‘main meals’ are not wanted (eg. fruit and veg bags); but bags for snacks are wanted
The full list of what is wanted is available on https://south-hill.co.uk/charity-recycling/
Take a look at this LIST of what can be recycled: please note that different types of recycling need to be separated – and that the scheme uses a range of “programmes” for different types of material, not all of which operate at the same time.
This GUIDE explains more about how the project works.
