You can use your own container for food waste if it fits better in your kitchen. According to Rossendale's guidelines, the kitchen caddy provided by the council is just a suggestion, and you are free to empty your food waste directly into the larger outdoor caddy instead.
Here’s a quick overview of your options:
| Container | Use |
|---|---|
| Council’s Kitchen Caddy (5 litre) | Suggested for indoor use. |
| Own Container | Allowed if it fits better in your kitchen. |
| Outdoor Kerbside Caddy (23 litre) | For emptying food waste collected from your own container. |
Feel free to adapt the containers based on your kitchen space! If you need more information, check out the council's food waste page.
