Recycling, Composting, and Tidy Tips

This article contains linked documents on the right of the page

Recycling and composting helps us to protect the environment by reducing the amount of waste that goes to incinerators or landfill sites.

Mid Beds District Council provides a kerbside recyclable material collection scheme, and "Bring Sites" for recyclable materials not collected by the kerbside scheme.
