Waste and Recycling A-Z

Plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays

Please rinse any food remains off, squash bottles and replace the tops (including pump mechanisms from spray dispensers).

Examples:

  • Shampoo bottles
  • Yoghurt pots
  • Food trays

There is no need to refer to the codes printed on these items which identify the type of plastic (a number in a triangular recycling symbol).

We do not recycle

Polystyrene/styrofoam, toys, cups, plant pots and any other plastic items - these should be included with your general rubbish if you can't find some other way of re-using or recycling them.

Clean lids can also be delivered to the Wandsworth Work and Play Community Scrap Store.
