Recycling in Tetbury |
But what else can you do to recycle? A household recycling centre near Tetbury can take many household and garden items that you want to dispose of, including foil, textiles and cardboard. This is free, but you will need to take the items there yourself. Closer to home are the recycling banks in the Tesco car park in Tetbury. Amongst other things, the banks take plastic bottles, so long as they have a "PET", "HDPE" or "PVC" logo on the bottom of the container. The plastic items are then turned into drainpipes, park benches and even clothing! The site also collects glass, paper, cans, textiles, clothes and shoes. And what about taking your unwanted clothes to a charity shop, rather than throwing them away? |
