P-05-773 Don't Fill Landfill! – Correspondence from Cardiff Council to the Chair, 08.12.17

Dear David Rowlands AM

Re: Bin Sticker Petition

Thank you for your correspondence dated 22 November 2017 regarding the above and thank you for the information provided.

During the last roll out of wheeled bins in Cardiff, 'no food waste' and 'no dry recyclables' stickers were placed on to the black bins to act as a 'nudge' for the other recycling services we offer. This was a one off project funded by the Waste and Resource Action Programme (WRAP) and they provided the design using their knowledge and communications expertise. Moving forward, we can change the designs on the lids of wheeled bins to include more awareness about the end destination of the waste.

We take the comments on board about the green recycling bags, and would welcome a meeting with Claire Perrin to discuss ways in which we can improve communications with residents. I would therefore be grateful if you could share her contact details with us so we can get in touch directly.

I trust the above is of assistance. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Yours sincerely

Jane Cherrington
