MORE than 2,500 people in Wirral have had stickers warning them they are putting waste into the wrong bins.
In February, 2009, Wirral Council introduced two warning stickers – for “light contamination" and "heavy contamination" – which informs the resident their bin was not able to be emptied due to non-recyclable materials.
According to data released under the Freedom of Information Act, Biffa were issued with and used 2,500 "heavy contamination" stickers since February. They were issued a further 5,000 stickers in November.
