Reading through my latest recycle information from South Hams District Council, I see that I can recycle 'other plastic waste'
that I cannot put into my clear sacks. Apparently I can take most of the plastics that now go into my grey bin, to the Ivybridge
recycling centre (except polystyrene and one or two others). I would like to do this as my grey bin would then contain very little.
I would like to ask if anyone does this and where they leave their sacks? Below is a snippet from their recycle document.
MIXED PLASTICS
WE TAKE (PLEASE MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS CLEAN)
All plastic drink bottles (please squash and put lid back on)
Plastic milk bottles (please squash and put lid back on)
All plastic household cleaning bottles
Pre formed biscuit or chocolate box trays
Plastic sandwich containers
Yogurt pots, margarine tubs, Ready meal containers etc
Plastic fruit containers (unless made from expanded
polystyrene)
CD’s & cases
Plastic flower pots (must be clean)
