The following blue box recycling rules apply to both curbside collection and transfer station disposal:
- Sort recycling into two categories - papers and containers
- Use as many blue boxes as you need ensuring each box contains either papers or containers, but not both
- Keep the recycling loose
- Bagged recycling will not be collected
For more recycling information use the Search Waste Portal.
