Think about ways of reusing things before you recycle or dump them

Check whether it can actually be recycled in your area Cardboard, paper, glass, cans and plastics can be recycled in most areas. Check with your local council to find out what can be recycled in your area.

What happens to my recycling? The paper, plastic, glass and cans you put in the recycling bins is sorted before being sent for recycling or reuse. Paper that is contaminated with food or chemicals cannot be recycled. It is sorted from the recyclable material and thrown away.

Glass Empty glass bottles and jars can be recycled to make things like decorative paving and aggregate for asphalt or swimming pool filters, as well as new glass jars and bottles. Some glass, such as mirror glass and crystal, cannot be recycled because of high lead content.

Paper Corrugated paper and cardboard can be used to make new paperboard and corrugated boxes. Newspapers can be recycled into paperboard, new newsprint, insulation and animal bedding products. Office paper can be recycled into writing paper, tissue and towel products. Telephone books can be recycled into egg cartons and wine boxes.

Food and drink cans Empty aluminium drink cans can be recycled again and again. Recycled aluminium cans are sorted, crushed and baled into "bricks“ for transporting. These bricks are fed into a hot furnace where the aluminium melts and the melted aluminium is then cast into smaller ingots which are processed into new aluminium cans. Steel cans can be recycled to make new cars and bridges.

Plastic Plastic soft drink bottles can be recycled to make an ecofleece top. A styrofoam vending cup can be made into a pencil or a pen. Plastic bags and containers can be recycled into garden furniture, decking and fencing. Milk bottles can be recycled into buckets.
