Recycling versus reusing:
Recycling involves taking an old product and reprocessing it so that it, or the components that make it up, can be used as raw materials for the production of new products.
Recycling is not the same as reusing. Reusing involves, as the word suggests, reusing old products either by reselling them or simply using them over and over. e.g. the way many of us reuse plastic bags from the supermarket.
Some of the most common items recycled at the PINK BINS™ Recycling Plant are; plastic, glass, paper, metals, and, of course, all your garden waste is turned into compost and reused that way.
How you can recycle your rubbish:
There are four stages to recycling your rubbish – you only have to take care of Stage One, Pink Bins will do the rest for you.
