🚮 Attention all recycling warriors! 🚮
Fed up with your bins being left behind on collection day? You might be making a sneaky mistake with your recycling. Our favourite binman, Ashley – also known as @theno1.binman – has revealed the common culprit: plastic carrier bags. Yep, those trusty shopping bags aren’t welcome in your recycling bin!
In a light-hearted video, set to Jess Glynne’s “Don’t Be So Hard on Yourself,” Ashley explains why plastic bags throw a spanner in the works. They can create costly delays at recycling plants by tangling up in machinery, potentially causing safety issues and contamination in your recycling. So, what’s next? 🌿
– Instead, take your carrier bags to designated recycling points, often found at supermarkets.
– Better yet, reuse them when you can. Your future self (and the planet!) will thank you.
Let’s learn from our slip-ups and make positive changes. It’s all part of the recycling journey, right? ♻️
