Organic Recycling Tips

Place material loosely in your bin so that it can be emptied completely.

Place material with a heavy moisture content (eg freshly mown grass clippings) near the top of the bin as close to the collection day as possible. This will prevent material sticking to the bin.

No plastic bags or plant pots.
