Wheelie bin trial for recycling

In May 2022 we started a trial to replace black boxes for recycling with a new blue-lidded wheelie bin. The amount we recycle is increasing each year and to improve the way we collect it, we want to see if a wheelie bin is more efficient, allowing residents to recycle more and making collections less physically demanding for our collection crews. The areas chosen for this trial are those areas where the amount and quality of the recycling presented by the community each fortnight is excellent.

Please only complete this survey if you are part of the trial and have a blue-lidded bin for recycling.
