Kerbside collections for small electrical goods such as toasters and hairdryers could be rolled out across the UK from 2026 under government proposals to boost recycling.

Ministers are also considering drop-off points in retailers where households can recycle unwanted items for free.

And shops and online sellers would be made to pick up unwanted or broken larger electrical items such as fridges when delivering replacements.

A 10-week consultation is taking place.

    Bristol Council have enough problems collecting actual plastic and cardboard recycling. This ain’t happening, sadly. They can consult all they want but we’ll still be let down.
