The team will be happy to answer any questions you have, including on issues like flytipping in the area. They will also be dropping into schools and local businesses to help boost their waste awareness.<\/p><p>The work forms part of a wider campaign to visit localities across the city and try to help residents manage their waste and recycling effectively. The project started with visits to Altens, Cove, Kincorth, Nigg, Torry, and Tullos in 2025, with a new locality to be selected after work in Tilly is finished.<\/p><p>By engaging with the team, you can also find out details of how to become a recycling champion for your area, by nominating yourself for an opportunity to help the council promote the recycling message, and win a \u00a325 Aberdeen Gift Card.<\/p><p>Enter at https:\/\/recyclingchampions.commonplace.is\/<\/p><p>If you haven\u2019t had a chance to speak to one of the team, you can contact the recycling team with any questions by e-mailing recyclingteam@aberdeencity.gov.uk<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c83297a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c83297a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96f75f9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"96f75f9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"883\" src=\"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/03\/Tilly-recycle.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-570\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/03\/Tilly-recycle.jpg 663w, https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/03\/Tilly-recycle-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/03\/Tilly-recycle-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aberdeen City Council\u2019s Waste and Recycling team is out and about in Tillydrone between February and<\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/tillydrone-recycling-improvement-project\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"><button>Read More \u00bb<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":570,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=568"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":577,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568\/revisions\/577"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/connectedaberdeen.org\/tillydrone\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
