Cardboard

All cardboard such as brown card, cereal boxes, egg boxes, toilet roll tubes etc. can be placed in your blue recycling bin.

Did you know that cardboard sheets can be used in the garden as a mulch to suppress weeds, or when ripped up can be added to your compost heap. It can also be shredded and used for animal bedding.

Larger corrugated cardboard boxes should be flattened and deposited in the cardboard skips at your nearest recycling site.

This is recycled back into cardboard products e.g. packaging materials, cat litter etc.
