Recycling plastics, polythene and polypropylene

Resource recovery

In addition to the nation-wide collection service that we provide to companies that generate large volumes of waste, our resource recovery arm is able to collect smaller loads – typically up to two tonnes, though our minimum load is as low as 100 kgs - from SMEs within a 75 mile radius of our Leeds recycling centre, here the material is sorted and graded for re-processing.

Typically, we collect transit packaging, including polythene, hard plastics and board, thereby removing some of the bulkier materials from the waste stream.

More detailed information on the recycling process is available in our resource recovery brochure.
