Compost While You Cook

Compost and recycle while you cook

Whether you're an amateur chef or the kind of person who just eats to live - you can help the environment by composting while you cook.

Brian Turner shows you how easy it is to cut down on the rubbish sent to landfill in our short film.



Just collect your veg peelings, tea bags, egg boxes, egg shells, coffee grounds, filter papers, old flowers and kitchen paper in a kitchen caddy that sits on your worktop or maybe a small bin designated just for compostable waste.

The contents can then either be transferred to your garden compost bin, taken to your county council recycling centre or put in your green or brown bin (check with your district or borough council).
