One bin is rubbish. Sort it out.
Lots of us, for whatever reason, only have one main indoor bin (usually in the kitchen). This means our recycling ends up in a pile next to it, or worse, ends up chucked in the rubbish bin along with everything else.
Let’s sort this out once and for all! It’s easy and only takes one action: get another bin (or bag, or box, whatever works for you) just for your recycling. Check out our bin hacks for loads of ideas on how to create lots of extra space for your recycling.
Recycling rates are on the up in London, which means more and more of us are recycling – go us! But let’s get even better at recycling – all it takes is getting a recycling bin. Check out the recycle rate for your borough on our services-at-a-glance area.
