Green recycle bin and additional recycling

By using our handy app below you will be able to find out how to recycle a specific item, what can be recycled at home and to find your nearest recycling centre.  You can download this leaflet and keep it at home.

If you cannot find any information regarding your item, Worcestershire County council have also produced an A-Z of recycling guide

What happens to my recycling?

Once bulked up the waste is taken by Severn Waste Services and taken to  EnviroSort, Norton junction 7 of M5. Here the materials are screened and separated from each other to be baled up and then sent onto re processors. It is at the re processors that the materials are processed and made into new items.

You can find more  about the sorting process and where items are sent here at Severn Waste

What happens at the Envirosort plant?
