All about your binsExtra, extra!If you’ve got loads of recycling that won’t fit in your bin, you can put out extra in an open cardboard box or clear bag next to your bin on your normal collection day.

Green recycling bin What happens to this?We sort it into the different materials and send this to UK companies to recycle into new products.

Extra, extra!If your large items are in decent shape, why not see if your local charity shop can give them a good home?

Large item collection What happens to this?Where we can we try and recycle items. This isn’t always possible though, which is why we encourage you to see if you can pass bits and pieces of furniture on.

Extra, extra!Too much food waste? Put any extra in a food waste bag on top of your bin on your normal collection day.

Grey rubbish bin Extra, extra!Dont forget - small unusable electrical items can go out with your grey bin for recycling. Just put them in a tied carrier bag next to it.

What happens to this?This goes to a facility where it’s used to generate electricity. It also means 95% of Oxfordshire’s general waste no longer goes to landfill.
