    • Cardboard
    • Paper
    • Clean tins
    • Plastic bottles with tops removed
    • Newspaper
    • No food inside
    • Toilet roll tubes
    • Margarine tubs - clean
    • Yogurt pots - clean
    • Aluminium and tin foil
    • Egg boxes
    • Coke cans - clean
    • Plastic drinks bottles - clean
