Instead of flushing your waste down the sink or toilet, please follow our advice on how to get rid of waste.

• Paints, chemicals, hazardous waste - please contact your local council, they run special chemical and e-waste drop-off days. They also collect larger amounts of refuse resulting from things such as house moves. You can also talk to your local hardware or paint shop about paint waste.
• Food waste - you can start a compost or a worm farm to help turn your food waste into good quality soil. They are easy to set up and maintain, see below.
• Nappy bins - there are lots of nappy bins available that can sanitise and store used nappies.
