This is why you need to make it as simple as possible for them, having clearly indicated waste and recycling bins, making sure they are located in the right place, and ensuring there is enough bins in proportion to the number of people passing especially in areas such as busy high streets, parks and fast food restaurants! This post is aimed at getting people to recycle in outdoor public areas.<\/p>\n<h3>Well labelled recycling bins are the key<\/h3>\n<p>Finding the perfect waste and recycling bins is no longer an issue! The number of recycling bin and waste bin ranges now available on the market is unbelievable, with bins suitable for every environment imaginable! The only thing you need to look out for is ensuring you have chosen the right bins for the job. If recycling is something that you wish to focus on, we recommend choosing a range that promotes recycling. Some ranges, such as the <a title=\"Wheelie Bins Direct2U\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wheelie-bins-direct2u.co.uk\/outdoor-recycling-bins\/economy-recycling-centre-waste-bins.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Economy Recycling Centre Waste Bins<\/a>, has a different coloured bin for each type of recyclable, with the recyclable clearly labelled on the front of the bins. If you do invest in a different waste bin for each type of recyclable, ensure you position them all together, as the public don\u2019t want to walk around trying to find the bin they should use, this would result in littering or disposing of waste in the wrong bin!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/11\/Economy_Recycling_Centre_Waste_Bins_WP1000RCS.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-179\" alt=\"Recycling Bins\" src=\"https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/11\/Economy_Recycling_Centre_Waste_Bins_WP1000RCS-300x231.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Location<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The location of the <a title=\"Wheelie Bins Direct2U\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wheelie-bins-direct2u.co.uk\/outdoor-recycling-bins.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recycling bins<\/a> is also important to ensure the area remains litter-free. Public recycling bins need to be placed along footpaths, outside eateries and in parks. These are all areas that attract a large number of people, as those bins out of sight will be easily missed.<\/p>\n<h3>Number of recycling bins<\/h3>\n<p>It is an obvious fact that more bins are needed in areas with a large amount of people. Bins that get full quickly will result in littering, something we are trying to steer away from. The number of bins required must be decided on the location of the bin. The higher number of passing people, the greater number of recycling bins needed!<\/p>\n<p>The common theme throughout this post is that making it as easy as possible to recycle is of great importance. These may be simple tips, but are still often over looked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">For a wide range of outdoor recycling bins, visit <a title=\"Wheelie Bins Direct2U\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wheelie-bins-direct2u.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.wheelie-bins-direct2u.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has never been so easy to recycle, with the continually evolving systems in place today.
