Recycling Bins & Chutes
Please always flatten the boxes before bringing them to the recycling bin. Not flattening the boxes means the blue bin will fill up quickly and there may not be space for everyone's items before it is cleared. Consider this as a small act of kindness to your neighbours.
And please… do NOT leave cardboard outside the recycling bin where it will get wet if it rains. If there is no space left for your cardboard, wait until there is space or put it in another bin where there is.

Freecycle / Give Away
