How to use your food caddy
- Line your small kitchen caddy with a bag. You can use compostable liners or clean plastic bags like bread bags.
- Put all your food waste in the caddy. No packaging, please!
- When it’s full, tie the bag and put it in your big food bin outside.
- Put your outside food bin by the kerb on your collection day. It gets emptied every week.
- If you need more liners, tie one to your outside bin on collection day. If the crew has some, they’ll leave you a new roll.
