Okay, so at the POST OFFICE, at the back of the Co-op in the Turban Centre, if you look on top of the post box, there’s a sweet jar for USED PENS any type, felt pens too. There is also a red tub for USED STAMPS.
Just inside the door of the LIBRARY on the right, there is another jar for USED PENS and a box for USED BATTERIES.
In the REFILL ECO shop on The Thoroughfare just inside the door on the right, you can leave anything pertaining to tooth cleaning – TOOTHPASTE TUBES/ BRUSHES (INC ELECTRIC HEADS) TUBE BOXES. And MEDICATION BLISTER PACKS (yay!)
AT the very front of the Co-op as you come out of the main checkouts, facing you, there are two grey waste bins for PLASTIC BAGS. All sorts- they have pics of what you can drop off, including CRISP PACKETS.
WOODBRIDGE KITCHEN COMPANY are the registered drop off centre for water filters.
Mel from CUPBOARD LOVE who’s mobile van is parked at the Market Square every Thursday 8.30 – 2.30, will take in your CRISP PACKETS (please fold flat, she only has so much room inside the van!)
If you live in Melton, our beloved POPPY’S PANTRY is now a drop off point for anything collected for TERRACYCLE. Google Terracycle, they are the fabulous company who break down these tricky things in order to recycle their different components. Anyway, here is a list of things you can drop off at P P –
CRISP PACKETS
MEDICATION BLISTER PACKS (double yay!)
PLASTIC BAGS
TEETH CLEANING ITEMS
WATER FILTERS
OLD PENS.
NETTING BAGS (ONIONS, LEMONS ETC)
*Please note that Poppy’s Pantry does not take soft plastic (e.g. that fruit and veg comes wrapped in) from supermarkets. Thisย can be recycled at Woodbridge Co-Op and Martlesham Tesco.
