Virtually every household in Rushcliffe has three bins: green for compostable garden waste, blue for recyclable materials (plastic bottles, cans, paper and card), and a grey bin for other household waste. You can find out about the three bins on this website.
On this website you can find out the location of your nearest recycling site, and our recycling guide contains background information on what can and can't be recycled. We've got to cut waste and increase the amount of rubbish we recycle - and we need you to help us do this. Recycling is good for everyone, and our scheme makes it even easier with collections from your kerbside.
So now please help us: reduce your waste, reuse as much as possible, and recycle what you can. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us.
The County Council and six of the district councils, and Veolia Environmental Services, are working together to deliver a countywide publicity campaign.
The campaign will confirm what materials you can put in your recycling bin, with the aim of reducing levels of contamination in the recyclable waste stream.
This will help to maximise recycling rates in advance of the new Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) opening early next year, as part of the Nottinghamshire Waste PFI Contract.
