Recycling empty nebules

2 Replies

Has anyone figured out if we can recycle empty nebules in the plastics bins? Because upon clearing up both living room and bedroom about a million and one empty ones have turned up, and my friend and I sat arguing for ages about it to figure out if we could. I don't see why not, but has anyone actually found out if we can?

Ta muchly!

Don't know about nebules but LUSH shops will take inhaler caps with bottle lids for recycling.

Different councils vary!

Mine take them.... they are similar plastics to what I recycle already so I just bung them in.

Mine take non-volatile aerosols so pop the inhaler canisters in but not hard plastics so no inhaler casings.

Check your recycling leaflets / website for your local council then phone them if you want a definitive answer.
