South Shropshire residents in the town of Bishop’s Castle, and the surrounding villages of Clun, Marton, Chirbury and Worthern, are to be provided with a kitchen caddy to encourage them to make full use of the area’s food recycling service.
Everyone in this area can already add food waste to their garden waste, as it goes to a specialist in-vessel composting facility to make high quality compost – the type you buy from garden centres.
The caddies, were delivered to households last week to enable people to collect their food waste before putting it into the garden waste bin. Each caddy comes with an instruction leaflet and a starter pack of special compostable liners to make it easy for residents to separate food waste in the kitchen.
The aim is that people will use the new caddies to collect up all their kitchen food waste (including meat, fish, bones, pasta, rice, tea bags, plate scrapings, peelings and leftovers) to keep it separate from the other rubbish which goes for disposal.
