How important are recycling bins when you're out and about? After a listener spotted a lack of recycling facilities in Bristol city centre, James and Robbie explore the impact of on-the-go recycling and what happens when the right bins aren't available. Featuring insights from Bristol Waste, the episode looks at the challenges of capturing recyclable materials away from home, the success of Bristol's "In The Loop" recycling bins, and why clear messaging and convenient locations can make all the difference in keeping valuable materials out of general waste.
This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish Question' from episode 62 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 2nd October 2025.
While every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time. Always check with your local council for the rules that apply to recycling in your area. On the main Talking Rubbish podcast, we include an additions and corrections section where we update anything we may have got wrong.
