Green Wheely Bin: Non recyclables.
No page explaining this. Green bin for non recyclables? Mixed message?

Grey lidded food waste bins are collected weekly and brown garden waste and green household bins alternate each week.

Bins should be on the kerbside for collection by 6am on your collection day and your bin will be uplifted no later than 10pm.
