Please continue to use your green bin for your remaining household waste. This bin should contain any other waste that cannot be recycled using your blue |or brown |bin.
You can make the most of the space in your green bin by flattening your plastic food packaging and other bulky items.
As well as separating our waste into blue or brown bins, there is much more we can do to reduce the waste that we throw away. For example, you could:
-
take glass to the recycling points located across Falkirk. For a list of centres and points visit the Recycling centres and Recycling points pages.
-
home compost; you can compost a lot of waste produced at home yourself. For more information, visit the Home composting page.
-
use real nappies; the real nappies of today are far different from that of yester years. For more information, visit the Real nappies page.
