Rinse the container (use your washing-up water) Don’t put recyclate in the dishwasher – no need to waste resources to achieve an unnecessary level of cleanliness! Squash Crush metal cans. Squeeze plastic bottles flat to expel as much air as possible. These steps help prevent contamination and reduce the volume of recyclate, making collections more energy efficient.
