Before you toss out your used Christmas gift wrap, check out these tips:
– metallic or shiny wrapping paper can't be recycled as it contains foil, metallic pieces or plastic coating; paper wrap can be put in your recycling bin
– if you're unsure what type of wrapping you have, give it the ‘tear test’ – if it doesn’t tear like paper put it in your rubbish bin or save it for next year
– remove tape, ribbons and other decorations
– paper needs to be larger than the palm of your hand for processing at the recycling plant
– leave paper as flat sheets – don't scrunch it up into balls
– keep paper wrap loose in your recycling bin, not in bags.
