[Wylug-discuss] I am going to see Master of the recycling bin - Do you have any questions.

[Graham Whaley]

The 'New' meanwood road recycling plant has a special bin for batteries I
believe.  You might want to verify this before you go down there though.

  If memory serves me right they have bins for various little items, like
shoes and mobile phones.
  Breaks my heart every time I go down there though, seeing what stuff is
probably going for landfill.  And worse, they won't let you take anything
away to re-use, which as far as I can see, is the best form of recycling.
Hmm, would have liked that manual old Singer sewing machine that was there
:-(.

  Took some glass sheets (only small) down at the weekend, and asked where I
should put them - and the answer - in the 'General Rubbish' bucket, which I
guess means landfill :-(
