Recycling steel at home?

Steel can bankSteel kerbside collection boxYou can recycle steel cans by depositing them in a steel can bank, or by putting them out with your other recyclable rubbish for kerbside collection

To find out which is the best way to recycle steel in your area, ask your teacher or your parents, or contact your local authority's recycling officer.

Getting ready to recycle

Before you put your steel cans out to be recycled:

    1. Wash them

    2. Put the lids inside them.

    3. Also put any jam jar lids or bottle tops inside the cans.

    4. Squash the end of each can flat, so that it takes up less space. 

Ask an adult to help you, and be careful not to cut yourself on any sharp edges.
