my question is a uk residents

which bin do you put your swarf in

thanks colin

SKIPRAT:
Hi Colin
I probably am lucky in that respect as in my home town we have a recycling depot i just take it along in bags and just tip it out in the scrap metal skip which i think is the right way to go . I know  even SKIPRAT has to make "deposits" sometimes you can't go making "withdrawals" all the time !!


Cheers Paul  :beer:   :beer:

Here in Trafford, we have a bin for bottles (glass or plastic) and cans (steel or aluminium), which they must be sorting into those four categories mechanically/magnetically. So I dump aluminium and ferrous swarf in there. I don't create much in the way of brass/bronze chips. If I did, I'd collect them for sale to the scrappie, but as it is they go in the landfill bin.

Colin,

Swarf goes in the general rubbish....

Any piece of scrap metal I can pick up/ hold, goes in a bucket, which is eventually taken to the local recycle site.

I throw everything into a container and then when that fills take it to the local recycling depot and chuck it in their scrap bin.
