Trade Recycling
We provide a recycling service for a wide range of waste produced in commercial business and industry. These include the following...Cardboard
Cardboard is manually pulled out of the waste in the picking station and we also collect cardboard from many businesses. It is then bulked up baled into 500kg mill size bales and sold in across the UK and overseas into paper mills to be reborn.
Paper
Paper is manually pulled out of the waste in the picking station and is also collected in recycling sacks on our collection rounds. It is then bulked up and baled into 500kg mill size bales and sold in across the UK and abroad.

Plastic waste is tipped at our MRF and we separate 7 different types of plastic.
LDPE - Natural Film - Clear film ~ Jazz Film - Mixed Colours ~ Black Film - Farm Plastics ~ UPVC - Door & Window Frames
PVC - Spouts and Guttering ~ PP - Dumpy Bags & Bulk Feed & Fertilizer Bags ~ PET - drinks bottles and non food packaging
HDPE - Milk jugs Detergent & Shampoo bottles Yoghurt pots
Mixed Hard Plastics - Toys & Garden Furniture
A mechanical selector grab is used to sort out the larger bulky items such as garden furniture, window frames and sheets of plastic. The remainder is manually taken out on the picking station and bulked up ready to bale. Baled plastics are sold on to re-processors all over the world.
Wood Wood is separated into 2 grades - Grade 1 & 2
Grade 1 is clean sawn timber such as pallets and joists and skirting boards. This is shredded through our Dropstaad shredder into a 50mm chip to be sold to Egger UK to be processed into new high quality floorboards which are sold in local builders merchants. This means you can use floorboards made from your recycled wood to use again in house building projects.
Grade 2 consists of chipboard and kitchen units that we remove mechanically and manually from the waste stream.
