Once again, Oxfordshire has been named England’s top performer for residential recycling, reusing and composting, for the 12th year in a row! ♻️

This reflects the everyday actions of residents across the county - recycling right, reducing waste and choosing to reuse 💚

[Oxford Recycles @Recycle4Oxford]

Millions of vapes are binned weekly. When crushed, their lithium batteries can spark fires 🔥

Never bin vapes. Recycle them separately at the kerbside in a clear bag on your bin lid.

If you live in flats or to recycle sooner, use @recycleelectric locator https://t.co/v6aqiOZgim

Frosty mornings = Frozen pipes 🥶

If your condensate pipe freezes, your boiler may stop. Defrosting is usually easy—no engineer needed.

🚫 DROPs – Driving Recklessly Over Pavements – is dangerous, illegal, and could cost a life.

We’re seeing drivers mount pavements to get past our crews instead of waiting a minute or two. Our teams work hard to keep your streets clean – they deserve to be safe.
