A Greener Paddington

The BID introduced its free commercial recycling scheme in January 2007 and now provides recycling collections 3 times a week for over 150 businesses.

The BID collects paper, card, cardboard, tins and plastics from the kerb, and batteries, furniture, confidential waste and waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE) all for free.

Paddington was the first BID in the UK to introduce this service to its businesses, is offered at no additional cost and is recognised as a leader in the field of commercial waste reduction. More than 50,000 kg of recycling is collected from businesses each month through the BID. A glass recycling trial will start in November 2011.  If you are interested in glass recycling for your business please contact us here.
