WE all feel the need to stop using plastics and are encouraged to recycle everything possible.
Imagine my surprise when having shredded a huge amount of paper and taken it to the municipal tip in Northwich on Thursday, I found it closed.
OK I thought to myself, I’ll take it on Friday.
This I did, only to be told that it had to be kept in the dustbin bags (plastic), and put into the nonrecycling skip.
No wonder fly-tipping is rife.
