Put small electricals in a carrier bag beside your bin — St Albans collects them WEEKLY.
weekly kerbside electricals bag
Anything with a plug, cable or battery is electrical waste and shouldn't go in a wheelie bin. St Albans collects small electricals weekly at the kerbside: pop them in an ordinary carrier bag (not a black sack) beside your bin on your normal day.
Getting it right
Kettles, toasters, hairdryers, radios, phones, chargers, cables, electric toothbrushes and small gadgets all count.
Take the batteries out first and bag those separately.
Large items (fridges, washing machines, TVs and screens) go to the recycling centre or a bulky collection.
