  1. Yes tin foil and tin cans, paper ,plastic, carrier bags, and food stuff like fruit , veg pealings, teabags, egg shells.


  2. Aluminium foil is indeed recyclable.

    Certain types of plastics are also recyclable [e.g. PET] and others you will find with a symbol on the bottle or whatever.  Not all local authorities take plastic.

    Other recyclable materials include:

    glass

    paper

    cardboard

    oil

    organic matter (plants from garden, kitchen waste etc.)

    metals e.g. iron, copper

    You cal also 'recycle' objects through your local charity shop e.g. books, reasonable clothing, ornaments, toys etc.

  3. paper, cardboard, tin cans... plastic bottles with a 1or 2 on the bottom.... i dont think foil is recycleable

  4. foil is recycleable but only if it's clean

  5. Batteries, Plastic, Paper, Glass, Aluminum, Steel, Motor Oil, Tires, Toxics, Refrigerators, Computer Printers

    read how you can recycle on the attached site.

  6. Foil, PET plastic, paper, cardboard, glass, tin, aluminium, steel, the list is pretty much endless.

  7. Almost every container and item is recyclable...including foil..it's aluminum.

  8. in my particular area the following is recycleable from kerbside:

    glass (all colours)

    steel and aluminium food and drink cans

    steel or aluminium aerosol canisters (eg deodorant, hairspray, cleaning mouse)

    aluminium foil ( foil or tray, if it scrunches and stays its recyclable not like foil crisp packets)

    textiles of all conditions

    paper of all colours

    magazines, brochures, junk mail etc

    cardboard

    greetings cards and wrapping paper

    plastic bottles without lids

    garden waste

    the list could go on for other little bits and bobs but think thats a pretty comprehensive list. not a lot more that can be taken really apart from food waste and more plastics which i really hope they do soon. I also hope other councils hurry up and take as much as they do here!!!!

    everyone should recycle more theres no excuses!!!

  9. About foil...it is recyclable, but some facilities take it and some don't.  You'll have to check with your local recycling facility.
