5 Simple Tips to Segregate Waste at Home (Kozhikode Guide)

Segregating waste at the source is the single biggest thing a household in Kozhikode can do to keep our city clean and green.

1. Keep a dedicated wet-waste bin in the kitchen with a liner you can tie and lift out easily.

2. Place a dry-waste bin (paper, plastic, metal) somewhere equally convenient — not tucked away outside.

3. Rinse containers before tossing them in the recycling bin; food residue contaminates entire batches.

4. Use a small bin for e-waste and batteries — never mix these with regular trash.

5. Schedule a regular pickup so bins don't overflow and segregation habits don't break down.

For Kozhikode families, Bin Friend offers scheduled doorstep pickup across Mankavu, Mavoor Road, Nadakkavu, and surrounding areas so you never have overflowing bins.
