 OUR TOP TIPS ON REDUCING YOUR WASTE
 

Going shopping – reuse carrier bags or use a reusable shopping bag.

If an item needs batteries, why not invest in rechargeable batteries. If you have batteries to dispose of, they can be recycled at Recycling Centres. For more information contact Norfolk County Council at www.norfolk.gov.uk or call 0844 800 8004.

If you no longer want something, don’t just throw it away, someone else may be able to make use of it. Eithertake it to a charity shop, sell it an auction or why not join your local Freecycle group. For more information visit www.freecycle.org.
