Watch: I throw away six months of recycling on Sheffield's Lansdowne Estate now the bins are finally back

Mixed recycling bins have been returned to Sheffield’s Lansdowne Estate for the first time since Christmas.

If they didn’t have a car to take their recycling to the tip or a friend to help with that, residents had no choice but to throw their recycling away with the regular waste since Christmas due to a lack of recycling bins.

Or, as one resident did, they let it build up in their flat until they finally got the chance to recycle it properly.

Watch the clip above to see me pull on my yellow kitchen gloves and volunteer to throw out six months’ worth of mixed recycling while talking about how the Lansdowne estate has been waiting on the council and Veolia’s help for half a year.
