How do you clean different materials?

Cardboard, including pizza boxes

Only recycle clean cardboard. Put any food- or paint-stained cardboard into general waste.

Pizza boxes: scrape off any food in to your food waste bin, then put the pizza box in to your household waste recycling or mixed recycling. Don't worry about small amounts of oil, as the box will be rinsed at the material recycling facility. If the box is too greasy, rip the lid off and then just recycle that. Add the greasy bit to your general waste.

Food tins, such as soup, tinned tomatoes and pulses

Empty and scrape, as above, then put the lids inside the tins with the labels on.

If especially dirty add a small amount of water in to swirl and rinse.
