New food waste collection

[Everest]

I thought the UK is harmonising bins over 2026 - hence the changes for many of us.

At least we don't have the 8 bin system of Sweden!

1. Food Waste (Matavfall): Typically placed in a brown paper bag, this is used for biological treatment to produce biogas and bio-fertilizer.
2. Combustible/Residual Waste (Brännbart/Restavfall): Non-recyclable, ordinary household waste that is sent for incineration to produce district heating.
3. Plastic Packaging (Plastförpackningar): Soft and hard plastic packaging from household products.
4. Paper Packaging (Pappersförpackningar): Cardboard boxes, milk cartons, and paper bags.
5. Metal Packaging (Metallförpackningar): Aluminum cans, food tins, and metal lids.
6. Colored Glass (Färgat glas): Glass packaging that is colored.
7. Clear Glass (Ofärgat glas): Clear glass packaging.
8. Newspapers/Printed Matter (Returpapper): Newspapers, magazines, and advertising flyers.

We eat all our food, it's to expensive to throw away!
