Residents in Rushcliffe can place small electrical items on the top of their blue bins from Monday October 28 in a new recycling service.

Rushcliffe Borough Council (RBC) is seeking to increase the number of items that be reused and recycled and is now one of the few local authorities in the County to currently offer the kerbside collection.

Unfortunately, many of the items the authority now plan to collect currently end up being disposed of in the grey waste bin so the new service, which collects Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), is aimed at recycling smaller appliances and all items must be placed on top of the blue recycling bin.

Further plans to potentially introduce kerbside glass collections and food waste at home could be confirmed in the future. Changes will be made in due course in line with central government’s requirements under the new Environment Act.

Residents should never place the electrical items in the blue bin under any circumstances.
