Mixed recycling

Help us save money and the planet by recycling more of the right things. Recycling is a more cost effective way to dispose of waste – and it’s better for the environment too. Remember that all your recycling should be placed in your bin clean, dry and loose. In Surrey you can recycle:

• Paper and cardboard – office paper, card, catalogues, brochures, magazines, newspapers, wrapping paper and cards without glitter/foil/plastic, envelopes
• Plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays – including detergent bottles, yoghurt pots, ready meal trays and ice cream tubs
• Metal food tins and drinks cans
• Glass bottles and jars
