Plastics:
There are many different types of plastics, most of the common plastics that we use can be recycled - simply check the packaging for the recycling symbol to ensure that it can. By 'crushing' your plastic bottles and packaging you are removing 'fresh air' and 'volume' from your overall waste collection, allowing you to store 'more' waste and avoid bin 'overfill'.
