Rubbish and recycling

You can now look around the Main Recycling Facility at Costessey, with an interactive 360º video (opens new window), showing what happens to your recycling after it has been collected from your home.

You can see inside the recycling centre and follow how items from your green bin are sorted by hand and by machine. There is also information on the locations where the various categories of recycling end up for processing, both in the UK and overseas.
