Don’t ghost your pumpkin

This is the first Halloween since weekly food waste collections started in Huntingdonshire, so this year your pumpkin needs to go in your food waste bin.

Carving pumpkins are perfectly good to eat. The flesh makes a lovely soup and the seeds roast into a tasty snack. Whatever you can’t eat must go in your food waste caddy.

Before it goes in:

• Take out candles, tea lights, LED lights and any decorations. Batteries can start fires in bin lorries
• Too big? Chop it up so the lid closes and the handle locks
• No caddy? Order one at huntingdonshire.gov.uk/bins-waste/manage-your-bin-collections
