  • Clear Recycling Sacks - Households on the Isle of Wight that use clear recycling sacks are being advised to look out for their next delivery of sacks which will be made to them during June or July.

    If you are running low on clear recycling sacks, please do not contact the council. You can use normal waste sacks for recycling, as long as they are not black or charcoal in colour, until you receive your next delivery of sacks, and these can be placed out on your normal recycling collection day.
