You’re recycling better than ever be<strong>for</strong>e!<br />
Every six months the recyclables<br />
we collect from your black bins are<br />
checked and this time we found our<br />
residents are recycling better than<br />
ever. 93% of the overall contents<br />
of your black bins was able to be<br />
recycled. So well done to all those<br />
residents who recycle. We couldn’t<br />
achieve this success without you.<br />
This December, we are offering free<br />
cotton shopping bags to residents to<br />
help reduce the number of plastic<br />
shopping bags which often end up in<br />
landfill. You can collect your free bag<br />
from any of our Customer Service<br />
Centres or the Town <strong>Council</strong> in each<br />
of our market towns. Or why not collect<br />
your free bag from a recycling expert<br />
at one of our roadshows, we will be<br />
in Waitrose, Swaffham on Monday 15<br />
