Which bin/container should I use? Blue bag
What can you do with it? Cardboard can be put in your blue bag for a kerbside collection or taken to any of our HRCs.

We ask that all large pieces of cardboard and boxes are flattened and ripped/cut down to fit inside the bag before being put out for collection.

For any excess cardboard, please use the blue bag as a guide and make sure it is all ripped or cut down to size and popped underneath your blue bag to keep it safe and secure.

If you find you have excess excess cardboard/paper on a regular basis, you can also request an additional blue bag by visiting our website at www.telford.gov.uk/recycling.
