Waste and recycling enthusiasts, and kitchen users please read! Collections on Wednesdays + food waste procedure

Okay, it’s a little mundane – some minor updates to waste and recycling procedures

Waste and Recycling now collected every Wednesday

Food waste must now be separated from general waste – there’s a small food bin in the kitchen, and compostable bags are stored under the sink. Please put all food waste in this bin – including bones, teabags and coffee grounds – and empty it regularly: tie the small bags and put them in the the red wheelie bin. They just go in on their own, and not into larger bags

That’ll do it!

A wormery has been suggested on occasion for dealing with our food waste…any takers?

@lasertechs @petra in particular - we’re working with Quantum to see if they’ll recycle our acrylic waste

Can we leave a marked bag of acrylic off-cuts for them for tomorrow so they can look at this. Mark it “to Jose, for Javier and Eva”, assuming we have some?

This would be a step forward

Aight, I’ll bag it and put it on top of one of the bins so it’s visible.

Not much in the laserbin, about one 6th of a bag.
Labeling the bin by the lasercutter too, will try to insert a divider inside of it or assign another bin space with clear labeling.
