The journey of your mixed recycling
Mixed recycling is convenient but doesn't always yield the highest recycling rates. For example, sauce in a glass jar can spill onto paper, making it non-recyclable.
For optimal results, we suggest separate collections for each material type, ensuring higher value end-products form your recycling efforts. Unsure about the best recycling approach for your business? Our expert team can guide you through the options, recommending what works best on your premises and business type. Our engagement experts can train your team to ensure everyone knows how to use the new service.
