Trash Talk

The average person generates over 4 pounds of waste per day, that is the same amount as a Watermelon!

Now, since we have been going for over 9 years, spanning Greater Manchester, providing our waste and recycling service to anyone who needs it, you would think that everyone would know about our service.

Welcome, welcome, to another blog from yours truly.

Today, we will be looking at recycling and recyclable materials. We will be touching on: If recycling is worth it, the most valuable recycling materials, where you can go to offload your own business/household recyclable material and top 5 benefits of recycling. We all know we have to recycle because we are told that we have too, but...what really does recycling mean? and what happens once your recycling is collected? 

Buckle up, grab your recycled capes and get ready to uncover the environmental goodness hidden in the world of recycling. It is time to talk some trash!

Quiet down please...school's in session and the bell is for me, not for you!

Today's lesson is on the importance of waste management in UK schools. We know you juggle a million things, from lesson organising, parents evening, stopping yourself pulling out the last few hairs listening to 30 screaming children all the way to those desperate coffee runs, and waste management might be the last thing on your lesson plan.

Well fear not, because we are here to help you tick 1 more thing off your to-do list.

We are switching things up with the blog, as this week, we are investigating many common recycling myths that you will hear out there.

It is time to get those recycling myths busted...and what better way to do that then with a game. 

MYTH OR TRUTH - We are going to put to you a myth or a truth and want you to guess the answer before reading on.…one point for the correct answer.

You are playing for recycling pride and pride only.

Let's see your wastage knowledge on many of the common myths about recycling!

Wherever you go - I,S,O! 

I-SO happy to see you here today for a special blog of ours. (We will stop with the ISO jokes now) 

If you have never heard of the ISO Accreditations & what these certifications bring, then don't worry.

If you have ever worked towards an ISO certification, you will understand the amount of hard work and dedication that goes into gaining these & we certainly do now. 

Could you fit a year’s worth of waste into a single jar? 

This is what a zero waste lifestyle claims to be able to do.

But, how realistic is a full, unfiltered, zero waste lifestyle?
