What can go in my household bins

Food waste

Properties within the food waste collection areas will have 2 caddies. One indoor caddy and one larger outdoor caddy with a locking lid.

If you are not in a collection area, you can look into home composting.

How to recycle your food waste

  1. Place a compostable liner in the indoor caddy.
  2. Put your food scraps in it.
  3. When it's full, tie the liner and put it in your larger outdoor caddy.
  4. Put your outdoor caddy for collection every week.

What food waste we accept:

  • fruit and vegetables
  • bread
  • dairy products
  • fish and meat (including bones)
  • rice
  • pasta
  • tea bags
  • egg shells
  • ground coffee

How to get liners for your caddy

When you need more liners, tie your last liner to the handle of your caddy. We will then leave a new roll of liners with the caddy on your next collection.

Do not use plastic bags, newspaper or paper bags instead of the liners.
