Aerosol Cans

The manufacture of aerosol cans is very energy intensive, and the gases used can be harmful to the earth's atmosphere.

Place into Packaging Recycling Points or blue kerbside boxes in Edinburgh, Can Recycling Points or kerbside boxes in East Lothian and West Lothian, Can Recycling Points in Midlothian or recycling bags or bins in the Scottish Borders. See KERBSIDE RECYCLING or W: www.sort-it.org.uk. Please ensure that they are completely empty and put plastic lids into your regular bin.

As an alternative use pump sprays or roll-ons.

Do not crush or burn aerosol cans.
