Biscuit (and chocolate/sweet) tins

Find out how to reuse and recycle biscuit tins.

Reuse

These tins are a great storage container so try and reuse before you recycle. If you don't have a need for them, offer them for re-use on online networks such as Olio, Freegle or Freecycle

Recycle

Empty metal and plastic biscuit/sweet tins can be put in your blue-lidded recycling bin. 

Alternatively, the tins can be taken to our recycling centres and the metal tins can go in the scrap metal container and the plastic tubs can go in the plastic tubs and trays container. Please ask staff on site if unsure which container to use.
