Kerbside Recycling Box Scheme
Following the successful trial of the household kerbside recycling scheme, which was initially piloted by around 6,500 households across Dundee, it has been expanded with approximately 15,500 households now being offered the 55 litre green box. This enables households to easily separate and recycle their household wastes.
The materials collected include waste aluminium cans, glass bottles/jars and plastic bottles.
Householders are then being asked to put the green boxes out on the kerbside for collection on the relevant day. The collection crew sorts the contents of the box into separate compartments in the collection vehicle with the contents being taken to Marchbanks before being recycled.
The responses of those involved remain positive and it is hoped that in the future the scheme will eventually be rolled out across the city on a phase by phase basis. If you have queries regarding the scheme please call 01382 432712.
