Cotswold sorts recycling at the kerbside into several containers: two black boxes (one for glass, one for paper), a white bag for plastics and tins, and a blue bag for cardboard. General rubbish goes in a grey bin, with a weekly food caddy and a paid garden bin.
Cotswold District Council collects the grey 180-litre bin (general non-recyclable waste) fortnightly. Recycling is sorted at the kerbside into: two black boxes (one for glass bottles and jars, one for paper), a white reusable bag for plastics, tins and cartons, and a blue bag for cardboard. Food waste is collected weekly using an indoor kitchen caddy and an outdoor caddy. Garden waste goes in a bin on a paid licence (around £73 a year), collected fortnightly. Present all containers by 7am on collection day. Waste is managed through Gloucestershire County Council and the Ubico partnership.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Cotswold. You can also check the council's own page at cotswold.gov.uk.
