What are kerb-side recycling schemes?

Amy Sims (Communications Manager) gives expert video advice on: Why is recycling important?; What items of household waste can be recycled?; How can I reduce the amount of waste I produce at home? and more...

Many local councils now provide kerb-side recycling schemes. This is where the council provides you with one or more recycling bins, and then they collect these bins at different times. If this is available, the council should tell you what goes in which bin, and when the collection dates will be. Some councils collect garden waste, some collect food waste. You just need to call them up or log onto their website to find out what's available in your area.
