Recycle paper, card and glass and reduce waste costs Croydon Council's Paper and Card recycling scheme for businesses The basic elements of the scheme are:
The price for the service is very competitive:
If you do not currently recycle, signing up to this service will almost certainly save your business money provided you make the necessary changes to your existing waste collection contract. For example, if you currently use two 1100l bins for your ordinary mixed waste, but about half of your waste is recyclable paper and card, you will need to switch one bin over to recycling and make changes to your existing contract. In this way you will pay the recycling price above for that bin, instead of your current ordinary waste charge. If you are interested in taking up this service, please phone either 020 8255 2704 (Mark) or 020 8255 2792 (Sue). Glass Recycling Croydon Council also run a glass recycling service. To qualify for the scheme a business needs to dispose of at least 100 glass bottles a week:

If you start recycling, you should significantly reduce the amount of ordinary waste you dispose, and the associated collection costs. If you adjust your current ordinary waste contract, (assuming it is calculated on volume) you should save money overall. To find out more, please call either 020 8255 2792 (Sue) or 020 8255 2704 (Mark) or email recycling@envibe.co.uk.
