Recycling is collected every fortnight.<br />

Your recycling boxes and sack need to be ready for collection by 7am on your<br />

recycling day.<br />

If your recycling hasn't been collected for some reason, you should be left<br />

a note explaining the problem.<br />

Reasons might include:<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

large cardboard - cardboard must be flattened and no bigger than 45cm x<br />

45cm<br />

tops left on plastic bottles - please remove all tops from bottles<br />

wrong type of plastic - we only accept plastic bottles in your green sack<br />

mixing your recycling materials - please separate the materials into the right<br />

containers<br />

shredded paper - this shouldn't be put into your green box; it can<br />

be composted or reused for animal bedding (or alternatively put in your black<br />

bin)<br />

As long as the problem has been sorted out, your recycling will then be taken on<br />

your next recycling collection day.<br />

If you have not been left a note, there may be other issues affecting the service<br />

which you can check online at www.westberks.gov.uk For more help, please contact<br />
