the recycling binWhat do I put in the recycling bin?!? There seems to be a lot of confusion about what to actually put in the recycling bin, or if you are suppose to wash it or not?!! Check out Bournemouth Recycling's website to get the answers. Their A-Z on recycling can also be useful. Larger items and ones that don't go in the recycling bin, can be recycled at the local recycling centre. For more information about what you can recycle and where to go, visit their website.

Stuff to give awayOne man's trash is another man's treasure! Everything from well weathered furniture to bubble wrap that you no longer need, might come in useful for someone else. Try your local Freecycle and Gumtree. Or local Facebook groups such as Sobo Recycle or Bournemouth Recycle for more unlikely items such as packaging, surplus jam jars...
