Happy Easter 🐰

Finished any chocolate eggs yet? Please remember:
✅ You can recycle the cardboard box
✅ You can recycle the plastic case
✅ You can recycle the foil
❌ Do not recycle the chocolate (maybe you could eat that or share with others?)

Good Friday just got even BETTER, when it comes to bin collections, as our crews will be out collecting this Friday.

Next week (week commencing 1 April) your bin collection will be a day later than your usual day.

We will be out with colleagues from @WestNorfolkBC this weekend looking to speak to homeowners along the coast at Heacham.

This is part of our work to engage with local communities as we look at coastal management in the area.

In fact there is nothing not to love about #FoodWasteActionWeek. The waste management team would really like to thank North Wootton Academy and Docking Market for their hospitality.

Remember food waste caddies go out every week next to your bin.

Join in with #FoodWasteActionWeek & buy loose where you can. Here's our 2nd #toptip to help you buy loose fruit & veg: You don’t need any fancy gadgets to put your produce in, an old shopping bag or larger container will work perfectly well.👌 #FoodSavvy

Collecting food waste in your caddies is the most environmentally friendly thing you can do with food waste other than reducing the amount of it in the first place. Start reducing food waste today and make use of your weekly collection. #FWAW

Today we're at @DockingMarket in Docking Village Hall as part of #FoodWasteActionWeek. Using your local market is a great way to reduce food waste by buying just what you need & eating what you buy.

It's #FoodWasteActionWeek

We collect food waste weekly.

Putting your food waste caddy out for collection with your waste or recycling collection reduces CO2, can create electricity & creates nutrient rich biofertilizer used by farmers to grow crops.
