00:06into effect under the Environment Act 2021. The changes aim to make collections more consistent
00:12across England. From now on, items including plastic pots, yoghurt containers, food trays,
00:19cartons and aerosol cans can all be placed in the same bin. Existing materials like glass,
00:24paper and bottles remain accepted. The council says items should be rinsed and not crushed
