Blue bin to replace the green box

South Cambridgeshire District Council is changing the way it collects your recyclable waste by replacing the existing green box scheme with a blue wheeled bin, which comes with a specially designed inner caddy to keep paper separate from everything else.

Kitchen caddy paper liners available in local shops

We're making it easier for you to recycle your food waste. You can now buy paper liners from a local shop in Abington, Comberton, Duxford, Foxton, Haslingfield, Ickleton, Linton, Sawston and Waterbeach. We will continue to encourage more local shops to stock the paper liners.
