Find the right route.
Our material experience covers plastic film, containers, fines and MRF residues. A clear description is the starting point for every enquiry.
Plastic film & LD bales
Baled plastic film, 2D film and LD film streams.
We arrange enquiries for film and baled plastics, matching the stated material specification with the requirements of prospective receiving facilities. The source, grade and condition of a load determine which routes can be considered.
What helps us assess an enquiry
- Polymer type or known grade, and source of the material
- Bale dimensions, approximate weight and number of bales
- Moisture, contamination and any mixed-material content
- Photographs, expected tonnage and loading arrangements
Rigid plastics & containers
Mixed plastic packaging, drums and containers.
We work with mixed plastic containers, including 25-litre containers and 200-litre drums. Enquiries are assessed on their previous contents, condition, segregation and the receiving facility’s acceptance requirements.
What helps us assess an enquiry
- Container types, sizes and approximate quantities
- Previous contents and details of any residues
- Whether containers are empty, drained or cleaned
- Material identification, photographs and storage condition
Trommel & plastic fines
Fines generated by sorting and treatment processes.
We coordinate enquiries for trommel fines and plastic fines from waste treatment activities. Composition can vary considerably, so a waste description, origin and any relevant analysis are needed before a suitable route can be agreed.
What helps us assess an enquiry
- Process of origin and a representative description
- Composition, particle size and moisture information
- Available sampling or analysis and proposed classification
- Estimated tonnage, frequency and loading method
MRF residues
Residual material from materials recovery facilities.
We arrange outlet enquiries for mechanically treated MRF residues, taking account of composition and the requirements of the proposed receiving facility. A description or waste code alone does not confirm that a load can be accepted.
What helps us assess an enquiry
- Source process and known material composition
- Details of contamination and excluded materials
- Available analysis, photographs and waste description
- Load size, site access and anticipated movement dates
Specification first.
Acceptance by agreement.
A material name or waste code is a starting point, not an assurance of acceptance. Origin, composition, contamination, packaging and the receiving facility’s requirements all affect the route.
Please disclose hazardous properties, residual contents and any known contamination at the enquiry stage. Sampling, analysis or further information may be required. Do not dispatch a load until its destination and acceptance arrangements have been confirmed.
Where material cannot be recycled, any alternative recovery or disposal route must be assessed and agreed specifically. We do not promise a recycling outcome for every stream.
