Those using the scheme are asked that all knives are safely wrapped in tape and newspaper before placing in the bins. There are four locations for the amnesty bins: The Boy in the Boat statue, Maidenhead Desborough Park, Maidenhead Tesco, Dedworth Road, Windsor Vansittart Skate Park, Windsor A further amnesty bin is located at Maidenhead police station, as well as at several stations across the Thames Valley.
