    I've a few pillows that are past their best.

    I was reading online about how to recycle them and one site said the feathers removed from the fabric can go into a compost bin.

    The site seemed American, does anyone know if they can go into the food bin?

    Or direct me to the right place :)

    My gut would say black bin, but I could be wrong, I wouldn't put it in the composite bin

    Put them in the compost bin at the amenity tip. I wouldn't put them in the garden compost bin.

    Thanks for the reply, I emailed my bin collector they said not to put it into the house food bin.

    I rolled them up tight and popped them in the general waste.
