Please remember not to put batteries or products with batteries in wheelie bins as they may be crushed or damaged in bin lorries, which can cause explosions and trigger fires.
Batteries found in mobile phones and power packs on electric bikes or scooters have all caused fires in the back of local bin lorries since January – disrupting collection rounds and putting crews and the public in danger.
Vape recycling has just been introduced at all nine of Cambridgeshire’s Household Recycling Centres .
