Card & Paper Waste Collection

No matter the quantity of waste paper and card your organisation produces, we can always help.

No volume of waste is too large or too small. Whether you wish to segregate your waste paper using a simple paper and card bin, or using one of our on or off-site balers, we can provide the service you need. Varying grades of paper and cardboard will impact its value, so we can help you segregate effectively at source and provide guidance and support on educating your employees about the benefits of keeping waste paper clean and dry.

Once waste is collected, we sort and grade waste paper and card at our clean Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) / Merchanting centre, after which it is baled, making it easier to store and more efficient to transport. Subsequently, it is delivered it to a paper mill where it is added to water and turned into pulp. The paper is then screened, cleaned and de-inked through several processes until it is suitable for paper-making. This process of paper and card recycling enables your waste resources to be transformed into new paper products such as newsprint, cardboard, packaging, tissue and office items.
