purple bins

East Lindsey residents will receive a new purple-lidded recycling bin for clean and dry paper and card from next month

The purple-lidded bins will be rolled out across East Lindsey next month and residents will also receive a notification that they will be able to recycle glass items in their grey bins at home.  The paper mill has reported that over 98% of the paper and card collected in Lincolnshire is of great quality for recycling.  By putting the Right Thing in the Right Bin and keeping paper and card seperate in these new purple-lidded bins, we can all help lower contamination and make sure more items can be recycled.
