Can I recycle it?
Fruit and fruit peel are collected as part of your food waste collection. If they have not been cooked they can also be added to your home compost bin if you have one.
Which container?
Fruit goes in your silver indoor caddy for food waste and is collected from your green outdoor caddy.
When is my collection day?
