Waste Aware Falkirk Kerbside Recycling 76% of you said you wanted to be able to recycle at home. Now you can. A three bin kerbside recycling service is being provided to allow residents of the Falkirk Council area to recycle most of their household waste. Blue bins are being provided to allow you to recycle your cans, paper and plastic bottles. Brown bins are also being provided to allow you to recycle your garden waste. The service is currently available to approximately 31,500 households in the following areas: Larbert, Skinflats, Stenhousemuir, Denny, Grangemouth, Bonnybridge, Polmont, Westquarter, Brightons, Rumford and Carronshaw. WHAT can be recycled using your BLUE bin? Please place the following recyclates (materials that can be recycled) into your BLUE bin:
Please help us to get it sorted: Do not place your recyclates into plastic bags/liners as this makes the sorting process more difficult. Please wash and squash cans and plastic bottles before placing them into your BLUE bin. Do not place plastic containers, plastic food packaging, yoghurt cartons, bottle caps and tops or Yellow Pages directories into your BLUE bin. Do not place glass into your BLUE bin. Please use your nearest glass recycling point. It is important that only the correct recyclates go into your blue bin as only certain materials can be recycled at the reprocessing plant.
WHEN will my bins be collected? Your blue and brown bins will be collected on alternate fortnights. When you have received your new blue and brown bins you will be able to recycle most of your household waste so the collection of your existing green bin will change to fortnightly. Example calendar:
