Birmingham recycling & disposal
How to dispose of hard plastic items in Birmingham
Not accepted in household recycling
The council lists hard plastics as not accepted in household recycling. Its grey bin takes non-recyclable household rubbish, but unusually large items may need a different route.
What to do
- Keep it out of the recycling bin.
- For large or bulky items, check the council’s HRC and bulky-waste information.
