What happens to my waste once it has been disposed into my skip?
Atlantic Recycling operate a Waste Transfer Station and Recycling Facility for most waste types. Environmentally conscious Companies using our facility can feel comfortable with the knowledge that much of their waste is being recycled and reused as opposed to going to landfill. We also offer recycled stone and soil for sale which could be collected at the same time as tipping waste saving both transport costs and time.
