Five more days until the big day 🎄 With that comes a lot of wrapping paper, but did you know that not all of it can be recycled? Some are coated with a film or glitter that make it non-recyclable. To test if yours is recyclable, try the scrunch test. Paper based recyclable wrapping paper will stay scrunched and can be placed in your blue sacks. Non-recyclable, film coated paper will unfold and belongs in your black wheeled bin. For more info on what can and cannot be recycled, head to - https:/
