👕 Having a spring clear out? ♻️
Before you throw anything away, consider donating good-quality clothing and accessories to:
💚 Friends or family
🛍️ Local charity shops
📱 Free local online groups

Once you’ve explored those options, you can recycle:
• Clothing
• Shoes
• Hats, scarves, gloves, handbags, and belts
• Bed linen (sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, blankets)
• Towels
📍 How to recycle:
Bag your items and place them on top of your green recycling box, or take them to your nearest recycling centre.

🌿💚 What a fantastic community effort 💚🌿
Thank you to everyone who took part in the Keynsham Wombles Big Womble. It’s amazing to see residents coming together to help keep B&NES litter free. Every bag of litter picked helps make our community cleaner and greener!
👇
Are there any other community groups in B&NES out there doing litter picks? We’d love to see what you’ve been up to — please share your photos and achievements in the comments! 👇💪🌍

⚠️ Important Sharps Safety Message ⚠️

For everyone’s safety, needles and other sharps must never go in your recycling or rubbish bins.

Placing sharps inside bags, bottles, or packaging still puts our waste and recycling crews at serious risk of injury.
✅ Safe disposal options are available:
✅ Pharmacies and GP surgeries – many offer a free sharps bin exchange. Please phone ahead to check availability.
✅ Council sharps collection service – arrange a collection easily via our website.
🔗 Web links can be found in the comments

Thank you for doing your part to protect our crews and keep services running safely ♻️💚

If your tasty treats come in foil trays, or you use foil to keep outdoor food fly free, remember to recycle it when you’re done.
✅ Scrape off food

🔥 BBQ Safety Reminder

With warmer weather and BBQs in use, please remember:
Never put hot ash in your household bin!

BBQs can stay hot for hours and hot ash can easily start a bin or property fire.

✅ Let ash cool completely
✅ Douse with a bucket of water before disposal
✅ Only place ash in bins once fully cold

🔥 It’s National BBQ Week! 🍔🌭
Love a barbecue — but not the food waste that comes with it?
Planning portions and checking what’s already in your fridge can help prevent leftovers going uneaten.
And if food waste is unavoidable, remember to recycle it using your food waste collection ♻️
Every peel, scrap and leftover counts.
