What to do with old bottles etc

Hi there - a few years ago I packed all baby feeding stuff (bottles, teats etc) into a box & put it in the loft.
I'm now having a clear out and realise that they're probably not really fit to use again (discoloured, etc)

Because they're plastic and may end up in landfill, I was wondering if anyone knows of places where they can be recycled? Perhaps manufacturers who have a scheme? I hate the idea of just chucking out.

Round here there's a separate skip at the Recycling Centre for 'rigid plastic', as opposed to food package plastic. I'd put them in that.

Ring your council and ask them. Ours takes any plastic if it has a no. 1, 2 or 3 in that little triangle (except plastic bags for some reason) so I'd be able to put them in the household recycling box.

Excellent thanks, I'll do that.
