Managing waste during the holiday season can be a challenge, but there are some effective tips to help you minimize waste and ensure that everything is collected properly.
Here are some helpful suggestions:
| Tip | Description |
|---|---|
| Plan your meals | Prepare a meal plan to reduce food waste. |
| Use leftovers creatively | Turn leftover food into new dishes rather than discarding them. |
| Recycle packaging | Separate recyclables from general waste to ensure they are processed correctly. |
| Dispose of decorations responsibly | When discarding holiday decorations, check if they can be recycled or reused. |
| Be mindful of collections | During the holiday, be aware of any changes to your waste and recycling collection dates. |
It's also important to stay updated on collection schedules during this busy time. Lichfield Council often adjusts collection days over the festive period, so make sure to check for any changes to your collection days. You can find more information about collection changes here.
