Waste disposal guidance for households with possible coronavirus infection
You can securely store personal waste (such as used tissues) and disposable face masks and cleaning cloths within disposable rubbish bags. These should be:
- placed into another bag
- tied securely
- kept separate from other waste in your room
- put aside for at least 72 hours before being put in your usual external household waste bin
Other household waste can be disposed of as normal.
