Major changes ahead to green bin recycling.
A full page advert is due in this week's Wiltshire Times and Star to highlight a special edition of West Wilts Matters that should be delivered to all homes over the next four weeks.

In addition to the above change, 30 mini recycling sites across the district will be converted from taking glass, cans and paper (which can all be collected via the black box) to collection points for cardboard and plastic bottles.

The main reason for the change to the green bin scheme is the fact that the compost currently being produced is below the standard required for selling-on.
