Soft plastic recycling bin – wrong items – please do not put these in the bin
The soft plastics recycling scheme that is run by the Parish Council is for plastic bags and plastic wrapping only. It is not for general hard plastics, many of which can be recycled via your blue top Wiltshire Council bin.
In the last few weeks the following items have been found in the soft plastics bin – on numerous occasions.
- Old toothpaste tubes
- Plastic fruit containers
- Dirty yogurt pots
- Plastic netting – such as used for oranges.
The first 3 items can go in your blue bin. Yogurt pots should be washed out. Unfortunately fruit netting cannot be recycled at present and should be placed in your household waste bin.
The Parish Council requests only soft plastics are placed in our bin.
