Some authorities in the UK have the capacity to recycle the tubs via kerbside collection but Hampshire currently does not.

The six-year-old from Netley in Hampshire was "angry" when he found out that the tubs, often piled high in supermarkets, could not be recycled by the kerbside.

Jacob Hayler added: "On behalf of those operating recycling centres and kerbside collection services, we welcome the opportunity to contribute through consultation and help create an effective system that delivers on its intended outcomes and works, not just for householders, but for obligated producers and retailers too."

Kerbside collections for small electrical goods such as toasters and hairdryers could be rolled out across the UK from 2026 under government proposals to boost recycling.

Retailers are worried about having to install costly infrastructure, councils fearing the loss of valuable income from kerbside collections and rows between the UK and devolved governments over whether to include glass.
