  • New Campaign Launched to Tackle Recycling Contamination

    Mon 11 Nov 2024

    Hillingdon Council has launched a new campaign to further reduce contamination in residents' dry mixed recycling. 

     

    The 'Top of the Contaminants' campaign asks you to 'just take two seconds to check your recycling', by highlighting the misplaced items most commonly found by our crews during collections. Contamination occurs when items which can't be recycled are put out in your clear bag for collection. If too much contamination is present, it can mean all the recycling is sent to general waste instead. 

     

    If you've been putting any of the items in our top five into your clear bag, it's time to double-check how to dispose of them and help get Hillingdon up the charts for good recycling. Find out more here.
