All households in Hull will receive their new waste and recycling packs over the next couple of weeks.
This year’s packs include a new bin collection calendar, a residents’ pass for Hull’s household waste and recycling centres and a guide to recycling right.
To celebrate, this year the council has included prize-winning golden tickets in five lucky packs….open yours to see if you’re a winner!
Councillor Julia Conner, Portfolio Holder for Environment, said: “These packs include key information on what can and cannot be recycled, so that we can reduce waste and conserve resources for future generations.
“The competition is a great way to encourage residents to recycle more and I urge everyone to keep their eye out for the five golden tickets!
“By recycling right using your blue, brown and food bin you can help to save hundreds of thousands of pounds per year. This money has been used to boost the local economy and protect council services that serve your communities.
“Please remember, it is essential that you only put the right things in your blue bin. Keep bagged waste, vapes, food waste, nappies and clothes out of your blue bin, otherwise we can’t empty it.”
The packs are designed to help residents recycle as much waste as possible into the correct bins.
The annual resident’s pass allows Hull residents to use the household waste and recycling centres in Burma Drive, Wiltshire Road and Sutton Fields, which are all open seven days a week from 10am to 5pm.
