Recycling Quiz ♻️

Here are our top tips to reduce waste:

‼️ Avoid impulse purchases - always consider a purchase for 48 hours before committing to it.

♻️ Remember your reusables - bottles, bags and cups!

💵 Don’t overbuy food! Keep track of what you’ve bought and used, and always use a list when food shopping.

🥶 Love your freezer! Batch-cook and freeze portions for easy meals. You can also freeze lots of items - just check the label.

0️⃣ Choose everyday zero waste items, like loose vegetables or plastic-free tea bags

📦 Prepare to move out - Donate or sell your unwanted items ahead of moving. Eat all the food in your fridge, freezer and cupboards to avoid food waste. Dispose of anything needed in the correct bins ahead of time.
