PSD installs ten on-the-go recycling bins in St Peter Port, Guernsey

June 19th, 2012 by Richard Lord

The States of Guernsey Public Services Department has installed attractive on-the-go recycling bins in areas around St Peter Port where people gather to relax with a soft drink or sit on a bench to have a snack.

Each bin has three compartments – one for recycling plastic bottles (plastics 1,2,5 and 6), one for recycling tins and cans, and another compartment for general refuse.  The top of the bins also has a cigarette stubber plate, an ashtray, and a container to hold cigarette ends.

Eighteen of these bins are planned for the parish of St Peter Port. Ten have already been installed.

These on-the-go recycling bins are at the following St Peter Port locations:

• St Peter Port Bus terminus
• Next to the Town Church
• Outside the Market building and HMV and across the street from One Fontaine Street
• Outside the entrance to the Guernsey Information Centre on North Esplanade.
• In the North Plantation garden to the north of the Guernsey Information Centre
• In the Sunken Garden, below The Old Government House Hotel, St Ann’s Place
• Next to the Liberation Monument
