Now in its 22nd year, Recycle Week is the nation’s biggest annual celebration of recycling.

Chelmsford City Council are proud to support the Rescue Me! Recycle campaign- helping everyone recycle more of the items that can be easily missed.

The campaign continues to shine a spotlight on missed capture items that too often end up in the rubbish bin but can, and should, be recycled.

Top tips for recycling in Chelmsford:

  • Recycle more of these items:  Shampoo bottles, foil, toothpaste tubes
  • Make sure you recycle these items: cleaning product bottles, aerosols, yoghurt pots, aftershave and perfume bottles, toilet roll tubes, plastic toiletry bottles and food tins.

What goes where:

  • Clear Plastic Sack: Shampoo bottles, toothpaste tubes, yoghurt pots, rigger sprays
  • Green Recycling Box: Foil, aerosols, aftershave and perfume bottles
  • Cardboard sack: Toilet roll tubes

Recycling doesn’t have to be confusing!
