Did you know?
Tin and aluminium can be recycled indefinitely without losing any of their properties. They make up around 8% of the average household dustbins. If all the cans in the UK were recycled, we would need 14 million fewer dustbins.
Reduce
Buying fresh food instead of tinned food can reduce the amount of packaging that needs disposing of. You could also just have water in a reusable bottle!
Recycle
You can recycle your steel or aluminium cans by placing them in your clear sack, green bin or communal recycling bank.
