Did you know?
Tin and aluminium can be recycled indefinitely without losing any of their properties. They make up around eight per cent of the average household dustbins. If all tthe cans in the UK were recycled, we would need 14 million fewer dustbins.
Reduce
Buying fresh food instead of tinned food, and concentrated squashes or cordials in bottles instead of cans of fizzy drinks can reduce the amount of packaging that needs disposing of. You could also just have water in a reusable bottle!
Recycle
You can recycle your steel or aluminium cans using your orange sack or at your local recycling bank.
