The Yorkshire Post and Sheffield Star report that from next year, the council will allow Crosspool householders to select how they use their blue bin and blue box for recycling.
With the current system, residents must use the bin for bottles and the box for paper. But from April, you will be able to choose which you use for which type of item.
The news will come as a relief to elderly residents, some of whom found the boxes cumbersome to move when full of paper and also susceptible to windy and wet weather due to the detachable lid.
Blue box: from April can be used to recycle bottles, if you choose
