No longer drop off point for milk bottle tops

Keri Glassenbury from Halswell Community Project

ANNOUNCEMENT: We are no longer a drop off point for Over the top recycling - Milk bottle tops. Neith has an overwhelming number of milk bottle tops at present and is travelling next year. So the decision has been made to cease collections for the foreseeable future.
We have also had several bags of "recycle-able products" left at the front door over the last few months. While I'm sure someone means well, we do NOT collect these and they fill our yellow bin.
Please only drop off the items listed below:
