10/3/21 - DS Smith Giant Recycling Bin
As bins bulge due to increased online shopping and extended time at home, nearly half of households (49%) admit to completely running out of space in their recycling bins with a quarter saying this happens every two weeks or more.
However, this is just the tip of the iceberg according to leading recycling and packaging company DS Smith, which says that the UK’s recycling infrastructure is not equipped to deal with the increased volume of home recycling, caused in part by Covid-19. DS Smith says that as we see ever increasing packaging coming into our# homes, we need to make sure that we have the right infrastructure in place to deal with it.
To highlight the problem, DS Smith has created a larger-than-life recycling bin which
demonstrates the scale of changes needed.
