WOOD, METAL & GLASS

Wood, Metal & Glass

Wood
As a guide we will collect nearly all soft and hardwood materials including pallets and crates. Nails and screws are acceptable.

The following materials are unsuitable for recycling: MDF (medium density fibre board), laminated material, railway sleepers and chipboard.

Our wide range of skip containers are perfect for wood waste. In preference to dumping this good recyclable waste into general waste skips, thus incurring a high disposal cost, we provide a separate skip container dedicated to wood waste recycling - you pay no landfill taxes.

We can also supply trailers or tail-lift curtain-sided vehicles for easy and safe uplifts of smaller quantities of wood, for example up to 50 wooden pallets. This is generally far cheaper than hiring a skip container.

Metal
Our recycling services include metal waste streams (scrap metal).

As a guide we will collect nearly all mixed metals for recycling including steel shelving, metal racks, cables and sundry items like filing cabinets and chairs.

Instead of just dumping this good recyclable waste into a general waste skip, and incur a high disposal cost, we can provide a separate skip container dedicated for metal waste recycling thus avoiding landfill taxes. Our wide range of skip containers are perfect for this purpose.

Glass
To recycle glass waste streams we provide a range of user friendly services to our clients, from glass recycling bins for hotel chains to trailers for pallets of obsolete stock for distilleries.

Glass can be readily segregated and since the glass recycling market is well developed, our particular expertise in this area is the ability to identify the best and safest method for handling and collecting it.

As glass is particularly heavy it is essential that the most appropriate and cost-effective systems are in place. In addition the risk and obvious health and safety concerns over broken glass must be clearly addressed.

Most people are aware that glass can be recycled countless times, however colour purity is vital. Mixed glass is now being processed for newer alternative uses including grit blasting, in road surfaces and in water filtration. In each case these are far better and cheaper alternatives than disposal to landfill.
