Recycling
Recycling - since 2011 each month we sort through all litter collected
and sort into the following:
Paper, Plastic, Metal, Glass, Textiles & Landfill
With a recycle rate of 75% of litter collected since 2011
Metal drinks cans are sold to scrap dealer which provides revenue
Recently we have begun to sort litter as we pick with two bags on
the litter hoop saving us sorting time at the end of each month
