People in Sheffield are to receive larger recycling bins for their cardboard and paper waste from the summer, the council has said.

The new blue bins would have a capacity of 240 litres, up from the current 140 litres, and, in line with the existing bins, they should continue to be used for paper and card, a Sheffield City Council spokesperson said.

Meanwhile, brown recycling bins would be able to accept more types of waste from April 1 2026, including aerosols and plastic pots, they added.

The spokesperson said: „Anyone who wishes to can keep their current 140 litre blue bin as a storage container. Any unwanted bins will be reused or recycled.”
