Can I recycle packaging?

The answer to this question will depend on what packaging you are trying to recycle.

Many different packaging can be recycled – however it might not always be at kerbside.

Most people will find they can recycled things like cardboard boxes and paper quite easily at kerbside. It might be harder to recycle plastic bags at home.
