Hi tasmin,

As blurcurlygirl says, whoever is supplying the bags should be able to tell you eaxactly what you should put into your green bag as it can differ from company to company.

I doubt very much if you can include organic material such as leaves or food. Also certain types of paper and plastics may not be acceptable.

I did a quick Google search and came up with a list of what you can/can't put into a green bag service offered by a UK company. Details here:
