Not sure about OS, but in Aus a recycling bin is green with yellow lid, a totally yellow bin is for clinical waste. A dark green bin would've suited the Landy much better and wouldn't have been so noticeable, either he wants to make it a feature or it's a case of necessity.Quote:

Doesn't seem to be used in Australia, but OS it is for organics, so green waste including food scraps.Quote:

That was the case. Here in Vic they are all supposed to be brought into line apparently. Our council, maybe two years ago, spent who knows how much going around replacing the green lids on the general waste bins with red ones. On 2021 figures that's about 60,000 lids, provided each household has only one bin. Another consideration was that we have two different sizes of bin for general waste. Or, perhaps I should say 'had'. Wonder what they did with the 60,000 green lids.Quote:

I've filled with 91 ULP from blue, red, yellow, green and even a black handle.
The place with the black handles had that colour on all the variations, with the details stamped in white.
