In Mansfield, the general waste bin (green bin) is intended for non-recyclable waste. Here's a list of items you can put in it:
| Accepted Items |
|---|
| Packaging, polystyrene, and food trays |
| Bagged food waste |
| Used kitchen roll and tissue |
| Bagged disposable nappies and sanitary products |
| Cool ashes from fires |
| Bagged animal or pet waste |
| Non-recyclable glass (e.g., drinking glasses) |
| Textiles and plastics (if not recycled elsewhere) |
Keep in mind that garden waste, recyclable materials like plastic bottles, and other recyclables should not go in the green bin but should be placed in the appropriate blue or brown bins. If you're unsure about what to recycle, check the available council resources for guidance.
