Plastic Pots and Trays

We know some local councils do not take used plastic pots and plant trays as part of their kerbside collections*, so we now offer a pot and plant tray recycling service to those unable to recycle at home.

Bring your empty plastic plant pots and trays with you next time you visit, and we’ll recycle them for you.

How it works

Before bringing your plant pots and trays, please remove any compost or debris. There’s no need to wash them or remove stickers.

You can find our recycling crate at the exit of the garden centre.

What will happen to the plastic?

A local recycling company will collect the plastic regularly. It will be recycled into non-food grade plastics such as (more) plant pots and dustbin bags. All recycling is processed in compliance with Environment Agency Legislation.

PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT RECYCLE POTS OR BAGS FROM BUSINESSES.
