I run a small marine engineering business in Portslade and have my trade waste bin emptied weekly (at a price) by the local contractors, Biffa.
I recently looked at the contents of our bin and realised there was a lot of recyclable material, particularly cardboard and paper, in it.
So I contacted Biffa to see what we could do to recycle it.
They informed me that we could rent separate extra containers for paper and cardboard, buy approved plastic bags for the paper, and they would then empty the bins at a cost of £10 per week.
£520 a year plus bin rental and bags to help recycling? I don't think so! I will keep on dumping.
