How can I earn money from my recyclables?
There are recycling companies right across the UK who will pay you for your baled cardboard and plastics. Using a PHS Wastekit baler machine to separate, compress and bale together your different recyclables makes them more appealing to these recycling companies who will collect and pay more for recycled waste packaged in this way.
We work with recycling companies across the UK, helping our customers get the best price from their baled recyclables and giving their business a financial boost.
