A NEW style bin, which can hold up to eight times as much waste as traditional bins, is to be tested out across York city centre.
City of York Council’s trial of the Big Belly Bin started in King’s Square last August, as part of a de-cluttering and improvement scheme. The bin maximises space through a solar-powered compacter which activates when it is almost full, and is set to be trialled in other areas of the city in the next few weeks.
