Personal Go Bag Contents

Everyone in your family should have their own Go Bag that contains 72 hours worth of essential supplies. These kits are collections of supplies needed when an earthquake strikes, or an emergency evacuation is ordered. Personalize kits and keep them where they can easily be reached—at home, in the car, at work or school. This is particularly important during fire season when a quick getaway may be needed. A backpack or other small bag is best for these kits so that they can be easily carried in an evacuation. During the COVID-19 pandemic additional considerations for your Go Bag include N95 and/or cloth face coverings, hand sanitizer, anti-bacterial wipes, and a thermometer.

What waste goes in a blue bag?

cardboard The blue bag should be used for cardboard and brown paper. Don't forget cardboard from other rooms like the bathroom (hello, loo rolls!) and please don't put any cardboard that is heavily contaminated with food into this bag. Don't use this bag for any other materials or you risk it not being collected.

Bristol residents have a blue bag for cardboard and brown paper recycling. The blue bags are 100% recycled and recyclable, a world-first for this type of bag.

The blue bag gives you:

90l of recycling capacity for cardboard

more room in your green box for plastic and metal

quicker recycling collections as it reduces the time the crews spend sorting materials. This reduces congestion on the roads and the carbon footprint of our collection service.

What happens to the cardboard that is recycled?

Cardboard can be recycled and transformed into new boxes in as little as 14 days! After we collect the card, it is sorted, baled and sent to the paper mill where it gets pulped, cleaned, sieved, dried and rolled. Finally, it is turned back into cardboard products and the cycle begins again.
