Flats

Since 2007 Surrey Heath has been running a pilot recycling collection service for about 200 blocks of flats and properties with shared bin store areas.

This makes recycling more accessible for residents that cannot easily use the home recycling collection.

The service has proved to be a very popular, collecting mixed paper and card including;

• paper, magazines and junk mail
• catalogues, directories and yellow pages
• cardboard packaging
• art paper
• shredded paper (In plastic bags)
• books
• envelopes

The service uses wheeled bins and also includes an aluminum & steel can collection.

Everyone included in the service has made a huge effort. Making sure that boxes are flattened and polystyrene is removed has ensured that everyone in the scheme gets the most from this service.

Thanks to everyone involved, this service is now running to capacity.
Keep up the good recycling.
