Recycling and rubbish container guide

Which containers to use for your recycling and rubbish.

Green boxes for mixed recycling

Due to very high demand there is a delay in delivery of green boxes. Please bear with us and do not re-order as duplicate orders delay the system. We will deliver as soon as possible and your order will stay open until delivered. In the meantime our Libraries have supplies of clear recycling bags.

If you live in a house or converted flat, you will have green boxes for your mixed recycling.

The quickest and easiest way to request containers or bags is by logging into or signing up for a My Islington account.
