Food waste

What to do
Food waste includes all edible and inedible food, such as leftovers, peelings and plate scrapings. This covers:
  • fruit and vegetable peelings
  • meat and fish (raw or cooked, including bones)
  • dairy products like cheese and yoghurt
  • bread
  • rice
  • pasta
  • cereals
  • tea bags
  • coffee grounds
  • mouldy or out-of-date food

Place food waste in your kitchen caddy (you can use a liner if you wish) and then transfer it to your outdoor caddy ready for your weekly collection.
