The crews where they can, will take excess recycling waste. Extra cardboard and paper can be put by the recycling bin in a box. Excess recycling must be dry, clean, not bagged and must be able to fit into the bin. If it rains or snows, and the excess recycling is cardboard, or in a cardboard box and gets wet, then it won’t be taken.

Glass bottles or jars are not accepted as side waste.

* If there is more recycling than you can manage this Christmas, take it down to your local recycling centre, by Norfolk County Council.

For any recycling centre queries, contact Norfolk County Council Customer Service on 0344 800 8020.

For excess glass bottles and jars, textiles and paper - please take to your nearest mini recycling centre.
