Your FAQ

Question: What do I do with sanitary items such as nappies, incontinence pads etc?

Answer: These items cannot be recycled. It is recommended that used items are tied in a bag and put in your black sack for non-recyclable waste. Keeping your non-recyclable waste in a dustbin with a lid will reduce any potential problems with smells and flies. You may want to consider using reusable nappies which are the more environmentally friendly option and cheaper. For more details please visit www.iwight.com/waste.
