SIMPLER RECYCLING

New UK Legislation requires businesses to recycle

In October 2023, the UK Government announced new recycling legislation called Simpler Recycling to reform the waste system in terms of collections and accepted materials for recycling. These changes aim to simplify what can be recycled and provide consistency in collections for domestic and commercial sites across England.


The legislation requires businesses to adhere to stricter recycling practices to simplify recycling nationwide and is a requirement from 31st March 2025.

Simpler Recycling - What are the Rules?

The legislation applies to businesses, schools, hospitals and non-domestic sites and requires you to separate dry recycling from the general waste - paper, cardboard, cartons, metals, plastics and glass. 


You will also be required to separate out food waste - human food, pet food, biodegradable items (such as fruit, vegetables, tea bags, bones, peelings).


31st March 2025 - businesses with 10 or more FTEs must separate food waste and dry recyclables for collection. 

31st March 2026 - Firms with fewer than 10 FTEs must separate food waste and dry recyclables for collection.  All businesses will also need to separate plastic film packaging and plastic bags in the plastic waste stream. 

Simpler Recycling - Compliance Assessments

We are waste management professionals from across the waste industry.  We carry out audits and advise on how to apply the waste hierarchy, reduce your waste outputs, recycle more and comply with the new Simpler Recycling legislation. We are able to offer cradle to grave assessments to ensure you know exactly where your waste completes its journey. We offer an all-in price for an assessment with detailed recommendations for waste compliance.  We then provide a WASTE SCORE before improvements and after our recommendations for you to visibly show your compliance.

Will I need more bins?

Yes, you are required to separate dry recycling, general waste and food waste.  These cannot go in the same bin and will be collected separately by your collector.   One bin for all waste is not compliant with the new legislation. 


We understand that price concerns, space for bins and staff reluctance are real issues to overcome.  We can help with this to ensure the easiest and cheapest path to compliance. There are options and different collectors and as waste insiders, we can find the savings and make this easier for you and your business.
