Grey/black general waste bin
Your general waste bin is for things that can't be recycled, including:
- Yoghurt pots and food trays
- Nappies
- Coffee cups
- Bottle tops
- Plastic bags, film and bubble wrap
- Polystyrene
Some non-recyclable items should not be put in your black bin or any recycling bin.
Watch a video on how to use your bins.
If you are still unsure, Recycle for Greater Manchester has more information on what to do with different items.
