Recycling service
Cyngor Gwynedd (CG) provides a weekly kerbside-sort collections service for recycling. This means it collects recyclable materials in separate containers.
It collects:
- food waste every week, from a brown caddy using caddy liners provided by the Council for free; and
- dry recycling every week, from either a Trolibocs unit comprising three boxes, or a set of reusable blue boxes, allowing residents to separate their:
- glass bottles and jars,
- metal cans, tins, aerosols and foil, plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, and food and drink cartons (such as Tetra Pak), and
- cardboard and paper.
CG also collects:
- nappies every week in yellow single-use sacks, from homes registered for this free service;
- garden waste every two weeks, from a brown wheelie bin, from homes registered for this chargeable service; and
- non-recyclable waste every three weeks, from either a green wheelie bin or in up to three single-use black sacks.
