New Environmental Contract: How Will the Changes Affect School Recycling Collections?
Schools will be affected in the same way as domestic properties, by switching first to a single recycling sack in August 2009, then to a wheelie bin for recycling in 2010/11. No glass is currently collected from schools, and it isn’t anticipated that this will change.
