North Lanarkshire Campaign helps residents to make good use of waste

May 1 2008

NORTH Lanarkshire Council have joined the national Waste Aware Scotland Home Composting Campaign to offer residents discounted compost bins.

The 2008 campaign, launched nationwide by the Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs and the Environment Richard Lochhead, aims to get even more of the Scottish public composting kitchen and garden waste by offering discounted compost bins.

Householders will receive information on how they can order their compost bins as well as advice and tips on composting at home.

A range of discounted compost bins is available, with prices from as little as £6.

Each order comes with a free kitchen caddy and welcome pack with a guide on how to start composting at home. All orders include free delivery to anywhere in Scotland.

Compost bins can be ordered through the Waste Aware Scotland website, www.wasteawarescotland.org.uk, or by calling the order line on 0845 077 0756.
