What can you put in Wakefield bins?

Any waste your Wakefield business creates can be stored in one of the bins, bags, or containers we provide. Wheelie bins of all sizes can store general waste, while you can use Wakefield recycling bins for dry mixed recycling, cardboard, paper, plastic, and glass. 

Follow any weight limits to avoid facing an overweight charge. These vary depending on the bin size and waste type. For example, you can only put food waste and glass recycling in 240 litre wheelie bins. In some cases, using waste bags may be best, such as for green waste or if there’s limited space.

Sharps bins and clinical waste bags are available for all sorts of medical waste. This includes needles, masks, and contaminated PPE from tattoo parlours and beauty salons in Wakefield, as well as healthcare settings. For liquid waste, we provide oil drums and IBC containers in various sizes.

 Information about Wakefield household bin collection

Most households in Wakefield have three domestic bins provided by Wakefield Council. These are two brown and one green 240 litre wheelie bins. Wakefield Council claims up to 95% of waste can be recycled and reused if domestic waste is sorted properly. The three household waste bins Wakefield residents receive can be used for:

  • Green household bin

    Some waste will be recycled, while most is used to produce energy. Use your domestic green bin in Wakefield for food waste, nappies, juice cartons, yoghurt pots, plastic bags, plastic packaging, and food trays.

  • Brown recycling bin

    Ensure all recycling is clean, dry, and squashed. Use a brown recycling bin in Wakefield for steel and aluminium cans, plastic bottles, clean foil trays, cardboard and paper, aerosols, glass bottles and jars.

  • Brown garden bin

    A brown garden waste bin in Wakefield can hold flowers and plants, bark, twigs, branches, leaves, grass cuttings, hedge trimmings, and weeds.
