Well We Carried On Seperating All Our Cans,bottles And Paper,cardboard Etc. To Go Out For Recycling..

when we enquired as to the collection days for these various things we were told to stick it all in the rubbish bin, no collections for recycling!

I thought this was now a legal requirement to provide collections for recycling, clearly not.

Does your area provide collections to recycle household rubbish/items?

Ratters I was just thinking maybe it is because you live in quite a remote area and quite a long way up to your house that you only get one collection going up.

Welshy, I have seen the signs for Gigryn Farm but not visited yet, a restaurant there as well I think, so may have a meal there as well, we havent done much in the way of sightseeing yet, we just been too busy.
Anglese seems to have recycling pretty well sorted by the sounds of it.

Yes, they seem to be on the ball and the recycling centres are pretty well run too - staff are even helpful!!

Wendilla, we only live 3.5 miles from a busy town and the track to our farm is on a busy (A) road and we drop all our refuse at the bottom of the track on the side of the (A) road.

Sorry Ratter, only just seen this.
Powys County Council have a recycling policy and it should include you. May be worth contacting them:

Hounslow. Green bin for cardboard, tins, bottles and textiles. Blue bag for paper. White bag for plastics. Green bag for garden waste. Green lidded bin for food waste - with mini food waste bin for inside the house. All great fun.

WyeDyed, Thanks :-)

I noticed that they were collecting recycling waste in Rhayader, so maybe they dont collect it from outside of town as some else here suggested, I'm only a few miles away though.
