All the councils in Suffolk decided that 1 June would be an achievable start date for the new bin collections. <\/p>\n
More than 860,000 new bins or caddies have been delivered to households over the last few months in preparation.<\/p>\n
Households should have three bins and two smaller food caddies. They may also have a brown or green bin for garden waste, but this is an optional, chargeable service.<\/p>\n
Ben Woolnough works at East Suffolk Council and explains what each bin is for. <\/p>\n
He said the completely blue bin, or bin with a blue lid, will be used for cartons, plastic film, metal food and drink cans, and plastic pots.<\/p>\n
“The brilliant new addition to this bin is that you can put glass bottles and jars in there,” he added.<\/p>\n
The next one is the black bin with a green lid. <\/p>\n
“This is the brand new bin,” said Woolnough, adding, “It is specifically for cardboard, paper, shredded paper and books.”<\/p>\n
The last of the free-to-collect large waste bins is the one with the grey or black lid. <\/p>\n
Woolnough said: “There are variations of it, grey with black lids, or completely grey, but ultimately that is your bog standard normal waste bin, which is everything which can’t go in any of the recycling and which isn’t food waste.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"All the councils in Suffolk decided that 1 June would be an achievable start date for the new…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":466077,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[242,85,46,141],"class_list":["post-470565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-environment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/470565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=470565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/470565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/466077"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=470565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=470565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=470565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
