In King's Lynn, plastic bags and packaging can be recycled through specific channels. While you cannot place them in your standard green recycling bin, many supermarkets have designated recycling points for plastic bags.
Here's a breakdown of what to do:
| Item | Recycling Method |
|---|---|
| Plastic bags | Recycle at supermarket bag recycling points or black bin. |
| Plastic wrappers/film | Recycle at supermarket bag recycling points. |
| Carrier bags | Recycle at supermarket or dispose of in the black bin. |
For best practice, using reusable bags is encouraged, and you can also line your food waste bin with plastic bags. For more details, you can check out the recycling page here.
