What do we do with the items cleared? Recycle
We are a green company with strong beliefs that everything should be recycled to the best of our abilities.
Our responsible recycling is managed through MJ Church
Furniture and electrical items are resold or restored to working order when possible or donated to Bristol charities who help vulnerable young people who are need help furnishing their homes.
Any suitable tools and machinery are given to a Bristol charity that send them to Africa and developing countries to help themselves rebuild their lives and start small businesses.
Unfortunately, some things we cannot recycle due to the cost of man hours to process the mixed items and the transportation fees.
For these items we responsibly pass these onto a recycling company. They have the machinery to sort through the materials and they remove the paper, plastics, metals, hardcore, timber etc.
No recycling is free to us and incurs costs such as transportation, recycling company charges based on weight and man hours.
This cost is one that we feel is worthy of mention but essential for the benefit of our planet and the philosophy of our company.
