Think of your waste bin as the last resort - used just for the things you can't avoid, reuse or recycle. Waste in this bin doesn't go away, it ends up in landfill where it continues to pose a risk to the environment into the future. You might be surprised by how much you can avoid putting into your waste bin!
Remember - Food waste now belongs in the green organics bin.
