Can I recycle it?
The rubber inner/main body of a hot water bottle is not collected as part of your fortnightly recycling collections.
Please dispose of this in your black household rubbish bins and bags.
You can recycle a metal/plastic screw top in your red recycling bag for plastics and metals.
You can recycle any fabric covering with your textiles - please place in a separate gab marked textiles and place in your black recycling box with your glass bottles and jars.
