Plastics Recycling Ealing Borough
When green boxes were first introduced I happily threw everything plastic into them. Later I was told that plastic bags weren't allowed and so I stopped putting them into the boxes and the mixed recycling when it was introduced. Now someone has told me that only a small proportion of plastic is recyclable and I should put it in the general waste unless it is explicitly stated that it can be recycled. However, another person says that I should continue to put anything that might be recyclable in the recycling bin as it is sorted later so it is no problem to put something unsuitable in.Does anyone know definitively what the right thing to do is?
