Christmas Cards

Recycle your Christmas cards in your brown recycling bin or in the paper bank at your nearest Bring Site or Recycling Centre. Please ensure that cards with foil or glitter are put in your general household bin as these can’t be recycled. Reduce your Christmas waste by buying cards made from recycled card and reusing good quality wrapping paper. You can re-use old cards to make gift tags and new cards.
