London recycling

Recycling in London is important to look after the environment and work towards the city’s recycling targets. Currently the recycling rate for London households is only 33%, while the non-household recycling rate is 48% – balancing out at 41%. This is below the national average and short of the 50% household waste recycling goal for 2030.

The mayor of London has also set a target of 65% recycling by 2030 in the London Environment Strategy – meaning non-household recycling needs to be around 75% by 2030. Businesses in the capital can do their part to help achieve this by ensuring as much commercial waste as possible is recycled.

We can provide free bins to separate and store your rubbish in individual recycling streams. Take the responsibility out of your hands and allow us to assist with your business waste management by collecting and recycling your waste correctly. You’ll make significant savings by reducing landfill tax and do your bit for the environment.

Arrange recycling collection in London for a wide range of waste types, including – paper, cardboard, glass, metal, plastics, packaging, and dry mixed recycling. We can advise on whether your waste is recyclable and ensure as much as possible is recycled to help London work towards a greener future.
