Smart Sacks are single-use bags used to collect recycling.

Smart Sack deliveries

In order to improve efficiencies within the service we will now be delivering 2 rolls of Smart Sacks per delivery twice a year to all residents who put their recycling and refuse at the kerbside for collection.

Smart Sacks are not provided to properties with the new green wheeled bins or communal recycling bins with an orange lid.

Residents using the recycling bins should put the recyclables straight into the bin. Loose filling the bin helps reduce unnecessary plastic bag use.

If you live in in a large block of flats on an estate or in a mansion block see Smart Bank recycling for estates or mansion blocks
