There’s news here about bin collections next week – essentially all collections are a day later than normal. (After New Years Day all collections are back on the usual timetable.)
There’s also information about the ‘scrunch test’ for wrapping paper which I’ve not heard of before (if it will scrunch into a ball and hold its shape it is paper and can be recycled, if it doesn’t hold its shape it contains other material and should not be put into the paper recycling).
