Watch: Do you know what can and can't be recycled?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Plastic supermarket bags and Tetra Pak cartons will no longer be accepted in Christchurch's kerbside recycling bin. The City Council has said it is not in a position to accept the items in the yellow bins. Click here to read more about this.

These items now have to go in the red rubbish bin, however plastic bags can be dropped off at special recycling bins at supermarkets. Visit ccc.govt.nz for a full list of what can be recycled.

What are your thoughts on this? What do you think needs to be done to fix our landfill-problem? Let us know your thoughts in the replies below!
