1) use a liner and
2) empty it every few days.

It's the season of love and we are feeling poetic... What recycling advice would you give to your loved ones? Drop them in the comments below (extra points if you can make them rhyme😉)

When recycling, your glass jars and bottles should always be rinsed out and empty to prevent contamination. Remember to put the lids and caps back on - this reduces the chance of them getting lost during the sorting process 💚

Inspired by Norfolk Recycles 💚
We are here to fill that 'The Traitors' sized hole in your life... (We're clearly missing our weekly dose of Claudia Winkleman)
Which of these items are trusted faithfuls? And which one has cheated its way into a home recycling bin?

BBC #TheTraitors

Larger electrical items , and any items that have a plug, batteries, need charging or have a crossed out wheelie bin icon can be recycled in most areas at out of home recycling points.

Options for reusing/recycling your phone:

If it is in good condition/up-to-date, online resellers and some high street shops buy electrical items.

Most charities accept old mobile phones.

Broken phones can be put in the small electricals container at most Recycling Centres.

What can we say... it's all in the good name of recycling!
