Once the parcels are checked in at our warehouse, the contents are checked for compliance based on the accepted waste intended to be collected for that programme. The parcels are weighed to record how much waste has been sent and then the waste is sorted into bulk bags ready for processing. 

The waste collected is then typically shredded, washed, melted and transformed into plastic flakes or pellets which are then turned into recycled products such as outdoor furniture. Take a look at our behind the scenes video which explains the recycling process here.
