National Recycling Week 2020 A Future Beyond the Bin

National Recycling Week runs from Monday 9th until Sunday 15th November 2020, and this year's theme is "A Future Beyond the Bin".

Our waste and recycling contractor Veolia have put out these great brochures about what to put into your General Waste and Mixed Recycling bins.

Check out the resources below to gain a better understanding about how kerbside recycling is processed, and why you should reuse and recycle your e-waste and food waste.

We also have a new Recycling Hub in our Riverside Office where you can drop off your bread tags, batteries, oral care, fluorescent globes, small e-waste, x-rays, mobile phones, CD's and DVD's and Spectacles to. Further details can be found on the Recycling Hub page of our website.

You can also download the Recycle Coach app to search for what items can be recycled where and to get reminders of when to put your bins out. Further information can be found on our Waste and Recycling Collection page of our website.

Our Exeter and Beaconsfield Waste Transfer Stations also accept some products for recycling such as Green Waste, Tyres, Waste Oil, Domestic Cardboard, e-waste (Exeter only), Aluminium and steel cans, Glass bottles, and Domestic polystyrene. Further information can be found on the Waste Transfer Stations page of our website.
