What is Dry Mixed Recycling?

Dry mixed recycling, also known as commingled recycling, is a convenient and eco-friendly method of recycling.

It involves the collection and processing of various recyclable materials, such as paper, cardboard, plastic containers, metal cans, and glass bottles, all mixed together in a single recycling stream. This streamlined approach simplifies the recycling process for businesses and individuals, making it easier than ever to participate in sustainability efforts.

Why Choose Reconomy’s Dry Mixed Recycling services?

Opting for dry mixed recycling offers several advantages.

Firstly, it saves time and effort by eliminating the need to separate different recyclable materials. Instead, all items can be placed together in a designated recycling bin or container. This simplicity encourages more people to participate in recycling, leading to increased diversion rates and reduced landfill waste.

Secondly, dry mixed recycling is cost-effective. By consolidating multiple recyclables into a single stream, transportation and processing costs are minimized. Additionally, our facility employs advanced sorting technologies to efficiently separate and recover valuable materials, ensuring the maximum recycling potential of your waste.

Waste compactors

Where an REL or FEL service isn’t suitable, as the volume being produced is too great, portable, and static compactors are an option, primarily within the manufacturing and facility management sector, managed within our business and industry Team.

Both portable and static compactor compactors come in a variety of sizes. The smaller 8yrd – 14yrd are designed to replicate a skip service and the larger 20yrd – 35yrd replicate a RoRo / roll on roll off service.
