What materials can I recycle at my development?

You can recycle common household materials at our developments, but the precise list depends on your local collection service & the instructions shown in the bin store.

Common recyclable materials

• Clean paper & cardboard.
• Metal food & drink cans.
• Glass bottles & jars where a glass collection is provided.
• Plastic bottles, pots, tubs & trays accepted locally.
• Drink cartons & other packaging where the collection permits them.
• Food waste in the appropriate separate container.

Empty packaging first. If it is badly contaminated with food, it may not be suitable for the dry recycling container. Do not put batteries, electrical items or hazardous materials into ordinary recycling.

In England, the Simpler Recycling rules apply to households including flats, but local services can still use different containers & collection arrangements. In Dublin, follow the building’s instructions & Irish waste service requirements.

For guidance, see English household recycling rules or MyWaste Ireland.
