Simpler Recycling – Runcorn
From March 31st 2025, all businesses with 10 or more full time equivalent employees must segregate their waste streams at source. This is to allow for easier and more efficient recycling. Schools, hospitals and commercial enterprises must all comply with these new laws and separate the following waste:
Plastic, glass, metal (cans, tins and foil), cartons & tetrapaks, paper and cardboard, and food waste.
Businesses with less than 10 employees are advised to separate any materials that generate over 5kg of waste, but will not be subject to the new laws until March 2027.
