non-recycling

BLACK BINS

Black bins are for non recycling refuse only.  Refuse should be bagged, especially food waste, to avoid attracting vermin.

Large items must not be disposed of in the black bins.  Furniture, mattresses and electrical items should all be disposed of by yourself - either arranging collection or taking to the a local recycling centre. 

Any tenant found to have disposed of large items in or around the bins that the council will not take away will be fined by NEL Management.

FOOD WASTE

Bag all food waste.  Living in the city means there are always rats around and food waste left lying will encourage them to make a home here.  To avoid this, ensure all food waste is bagged.  

OVERFILLING

Do not overfill the bins.  The council will not remove waste from bins that are overfilled or wrongly used.  This means that the waste will sit there until cleared by management which is very costly and will result in rental fees rising.
