The recycling sacks are no longer available from Parish Council Offices, Civic Offices or shops. They now need to be ordered direct from Milton Keynes Council either by phone or online.

If you need to reorder a roll of recycling sacks or wish to find out more about why the changes have been made please go here or call 01908 252570.

Most items can now be recycled, either through the waste collection services or by taking it to a local supermarket or to MK Charity Recycling.

Did you know that most of the big supermarkets are now taking soft plastic for recycling at their stores. Most supermarkets are taking part eg, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Co-op and Morrisons are taking part nationally.

Scrunch it up tight - if it pings back, it's a useful indicator that it's soft plastic and can be recycled.

Various other items can be recycled for charity with Charity Recycling MK
