Black Silage Wrap

From the 4th February 2014 Allerton Recycling will be unable to handle bulk silage wrap which has been stored outside or has excessive grass and mud contamination.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to place such contaminated plastics. Plastic film should be cleaned before bagging and stored undercover before delivery to Allerton Recycling. Staff have been instructed to reject excessively dirty plastics.

It has always been our intention to keep recycling fees as low as possible. Silage and netting wrap cleanliness is paramount to us being able to reprocess this material economically.
