Fact 6: Had a roast dinner or pork chops for tea? Put the bones in your food waste caddy 🙂

Fact 7: Wrexham residents recycled over 640 tonnes of cans last year.

Fact 8: Are your recycling containers overflowing each week? Order additional containers free of charge (don’t be tempted to put any recycling into your rubbish bin).

Fact 9: Steel cans are 100% recyclable and can be recycled over and over again. They can even be turned in to bicycles.

Fact 10: Have you found some out of date food in your fridge? Empty the food into your caddy (even the mould!), wash the plastic pot, tub or tray, and pop it into your recycling container.
