Now that the stockings have been unstuffed, it’s time to deal with the Christmas day aftermath.

Here are our post-Christmas clean-up tips:

🎁 Tear wrapping paper to check that it’s 100% paper before putting in the recycling bin. (You could also save it for next year!)

🎀 Put any foil or plastic-coated wrapping paper and plastic ribbons in the garbage bin

🗑️ Plastic bags and cling wrap always go in the garbage bin

📦 Put flattened cardboard boxes in your recycling bin, or drop them off for free at one of our Resource Recovery Centres

🦐 Keep prawn tails and other stinky food waste in the freezer until bin night (they go in your food and garden bin)

🧃 Take empty drink cans, bottles and cartons to a CDS refund point and your get 10c refund

🪫 New toys or tech upgrades? Never put batteries or electronics in your household bins - drop them off for safe recycling at a Resource Recovery Centre or recycling hub

🎄 Take your natural Christmas tree to one of our mulching days, chop it up for your green bin or book a bundled branch collection
