Just a thought….do you know what happens to all the thousands and thousands of plastic AD Blue containers that you need to use when driving an AD blue vehicle?

I asked at many petrol stations and they said just throw it in the waste bin 🤷

I am wondering why the Council isn’t collecting them itself. Could I chat to you?
Tel 07785537767
Better still come and meet you at the shop.
Where do you send what you collect? How is it managed downstream?
I write a column in the Gazette as their” green campaigner” so material which it is useful to pass on to the wider public would be appreciated.
Thanks

My school council are big on recycling at the moment. We have an Ink Cartridge box and a battery recycling box.

Would you be willing to come into school to:
a) give an assembly on importance for recycling or
b) give a talk to my school council about different opportunities to recycle.
c) both!

We spoke on Sunday in Castle Park about the recycle items you collect for Colchester via Enform.
I have looked at your website, but cannot see ‘rubber gloves’ which I am certain one of you said you collected?
Please could you let me know because I intend to do a display at work, perhaps a washing line of the items you take and if it’s permitted, some collection bags alongside our recycling points and want to get it right.

The fact that many things that seem to be non-recyclable via the council can be collected by you rather than going to landfill needs to become common place knowledge.
Thank you for offering this service and I hope the word spreads.

what charities do you support?
can my local school be in receipt of ‘collection points’ if I am the central collector for the village?
