Waste and Recycling

Recycling in Broxtowe

Recycling is collected from your kerbside and processed by the Materials Recovery Facility in Mansfield (Opens in New Window).                                                                              

Materials are processed by product type, rather than codes.         

It is important to  put the correct items in the recycling bin.  A good guide to what goes in your recycle bin can be found on your recycling bin sticker.  Anything that is not listed on the sticker should be considered waste.  This will help reduce contamination.  Please see our recycling page for more information on what you can recycle (Opens in a New Window).        

The national target of recycling is 50% and we are working hard together with Veolia to achieve this by reducing contamination in recycling.

Not sure when your next collection is?

'Each message sent is charged at the user's standard network rate although some inclusive network plans exclude messages to short codes and therefore prices may vary.'
