Food waste accounts for roughly one third of what Australians put in their general waste bins.
Even without a food scraps program, composting at home makes a measurable difference to how much goes to landfill.
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Aberdeen's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.
No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.
