Mini Recycling Centres  

A mini recycling centre consists of multiple banks allowing you to recycle a number of different items.  Outlined below are the different types of banks you will see at mini recycling centres.

Mixed recycling means the recycling bank(s) accept paper and card, glass bottles and jars, tins and cans, empty aerosols, plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, and food and drink cartons.  Please do not recycle any other items, especially food or garden waste, in these banks. 

Clothes banks are separate banks which accept all unwanted clothes, textiles and old rags. Please note: some clothes banks will also accept shoes - please check on the front of the bank as it will be clearly marked if you can deposit clothes and shoes. 

Shoe banks are separate banks for the collections of unwanted shoes.  Pairs of shoes should always be tied together before being placed in the bank. Please note: some shoe banks will also accept clothes - please check on the front of the bank as it will be clearly marked if you can deposit shoes and clothes. 

Light bulb and Battery recycling.  Currently there is only one bank available for recycling light bulbs and batteries and this can be found at Sainsbury's, Ladbroke Grove (no. 18 on the list below).  Please see our battery recycling page and light bulb recycling page for more details on where you can recycle these items.   

Book banks mean you can deposit all unwanted hardback and paperback books.  Please note: some book banks also accept CDs - please check on the front of the bank.

WEEE banks.  WEEE stands for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.  Currently there are only two WEEE banks at mini-recycling centres in the borough.   You can deposit small electrical items such as mobile phones, kettles and toasters into these banks, but not larger items such as big televisions, fridges or freezers.
