Agricultural plastics and trickle tape

Trickle tape must be clean and free from contamination to be accepted for recycling.

When trickle tape is too heavily contaminated with excess soil, vegetation, metal wire or silicon inserts, or not adequately separated from other plastics and waste items, it can no longer be recycled.

Please be aware that loads delivered to our waste management facilities will be inspected.
