The majority of homes in the city have an alternate weekly collection service, where recycling is collected one week, and general waste the next.
It is very important that glass bottles and jars, tins and cans, and plastic bottles are washed out before you put them in to your recycling. High levels of contamination in our recycling loads can mean they are not accepted at the recycling plant, and may be sent to landfill – undoing all your hard work!
