Food Waste Recycling

We hope you keep your food waste to a minimum but even the most careful shoppers and skilled cooks will have some food waste.

Food waste is a valuable resource which is used to give a double benefit, generating energy and producing fertiliser for agriculture. Capturing food waste is good for our economy and our environment!

You can use any single use plastic packaging bag to line your indoor food caddy and keep it clean. Our Super-recyclers favour using bread bags, liners of cereal boxes and vegetable bags.

All the bags are taken out by a special piece of equipment before the processing stage so they don’t go into the digestion process.

Thank you.

The Recycling Team
