Create your own bin signage

The templates below have been published to allow schools to create their own bin signage depending on their needs.

  1. Select the blank template you would like to use at your school – monsters or thumbs up.
  2. From the drop-down menu, download the blank templates that you require for your school’s waste systems.
  3. Download the folder of waste icons. Usually, the coloured icons are used with the monster templates and the white icons are used with the thumbs up templates.
