Fact 5: Tin cans, car tyres, trainers, foam coffee cups and leather can take over 50 years to decompose.

Fact 6: More and more of us in Wrexham are recycling plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays. In fact, last year people in Wrexham recycled the equivalent weight of 150 of our recycling collection vehicles.
