In our area, you can not recycle many items in our curbside bins.
So every couple of months we have to take a trip to our local specialist recycling bin (this one is in a Morrison's car park) to recycle drinks cartons we have used at home.
As a family we compost lots of our waste, and recently we received a curbside food waste bin, which we've noticed makes a huge difference to our general waste.
There needs to be more public awareness about what can and can't be recycled at home, this needs to be raised by local councils across the country.
But if you are aware and can do your bit then please recycle your tetrapack cartons.
We believe we are making a positive difference in our own small way and will endeavour to find more ways to help.
