Recycling

Because we see how much it’s possible to recycle, we recognize what a valuable resource everyday waste can be.  We’ll collect all of your paper, cardboard and plastic, however it’s stored, and issue a certificate of confirmation once it has been recycled.

 

But while we’re happy to take away anything you need us to, we’d rather you didn’t throw away anything at all!  We’re firm believers in Reduce – Re-use – Recycle and as such ask you always to consider how you’re consuming the materials around you and whether, through a few simple changes, it’s possible to dramatically cut down on what you consider ‘rubbish’ or ‘waste’.

 

Reduce the volume of disposable materials you consume:

Only buy what you need, even if there are some great offers on at the local supermarket

Try to buy products with environmentally-friendly packaging, or no packaging at all!

An average baby will use roughly 5000 nappies – not only are reusable nappies better for landfill, they’re much cheaper!

Where possible, buy items that can be refilled or recharged, such as batteries, pens and razors

Remove yourself from any mailing lists you never read

 

Re-use anything you can:

Paper & envelopes

Carrier bags

Jars & pots

Wood & Fabric

Compost your organic waste

 

Recycle everything else (well, as much as possible)!

We’ve learned a thing or two over the years - if you ever need any advice on reducing what you throw away, or are wondering whether something can recycled, feel free to pick up the phone and we’ll be happy to help.
