Responsible Disposal of RATs and Face Masks

Dorset Council 9 Feb 2022

To be COVID safe, used RATs and facemasks should be disposed of in the garbage bin as RATs and facemasks cannot be recycled in kerbside bins. Mask straps should be snipped before placing the whole item in the garbage, to reduce the risk to wildlife if the mask accidentally becomes litter.
