✅ goes in 🟡 Recycle Bin

Sorting waste can be confusing sometimes, and that’s okay. What matters is taking responsibility for what we create and doing our best to put it in the right bin

 

Use this bin for recyclable common household items and ensure they are left loose (no bags).

Extra gold star if you remove food waste, rinse out plastic containers and bottles (they don’t have to be sparkling clean), and flatten out your boxes.
