Have a look at our recycling paper page for more ideas about what can and cannot be recycled through this scheme.
Please place paper vertically into the box to prevent it from being blown away.
For health and safety reasons the collection crews can only empty North Lincolnshire Council scheme boxes.
By supporting the kerbside recycling scheme, you are also helping local charities. For every tonne of material collected through the council recycling scheme, Abitibi, the council waste contractors, donates £1 to a local charity. In February 2008, Abitibi donated £3000 to Magic Moments, a local charity helping autistic children.
