Which bin for wrapping paper?
Usual answer in the UK
Recycling Mixed recycling bin
Plain paper wrapping can go in paper recycling. Foil, glitter and plastic-coated wrapping paper go in general waste.
Also possible: General waste bin.
How to prepare it
Use the scrunch test: if it stays scrunched, it is paper; if it springs back, it is not recyclable.
Does every council do this?
