Recycling is blue.
Garden stuff is green.

Green garden waste weekly

Fortnightly alternating black waste first week then blue second week with brown garden bins from March to October but no brown bins over the winter.

General - black
Paper/cardboard - blue

No garden bin - we're rural so are expected to compost, use nearby grassland etc

Both black but the glass little bin is green.

Green food waste bin.

Food waste collected every week. Black and green alternate weeks. Brown bin with green bin.

Black/grey - general waste

Green lid - garden waste

I am jealous people have food wstw bins. We only have two bins really.

Green lid (black wheelie bin) - compostable waste, food & garden.
Fortnightly.

Blue lid (back wheelie bin) - mixed recycling, glass, metal, paper, cardboard, hard plastics.
Fortnightly (in rotation with green lid bin).

Black plastic bin bags - other waste.
I have very little, other than dog poo, so rarely use the black bags and just use a smaller plastic bag from the kitchen bin (usually one of the many charity bags left for clothes).
Weekly.

General-dark grey wheelie
Garden- green wheelie
Food waste- small brown
All recycling- green plastic bags at the moment. New recycling system being implemented in stages throughout the city, will be blue bin for glass and red and blue sacks for various other materials, not looking forward to that.

Garden - brown (paid for subscription)
General - black/grey
Food waste - green

Recycling:
Glass - black box
Cardboard - orange sack
Plastic/tins - red sack
Paper - blue sack

Wish we could shove our recycling all in together as some of you seem to be able to.

Black - general waste
Brown - garden waste and food waste
Green - recycling

Have just come back from my mums who confusing has:

Green - general waste
Blue - paper and card
Purple
Black
I think another one

Black - general waste
Black with green lid - recycling
Black with brown lid - garden waste
Black with red lid - glass recycling

The council refer to them by their lid colours on the timetable.

Some neighbours have a yellow bag for glass instead of the red lidded bin.
