Greener World London provides professional mixed recycling collections across London. We help businesses of every size manage their cardboard, paper, cans and plastic bottles in a simple, compliant and environmentally responsible way.
Our mixed recycling collection is designed to handle the everyday recyclable materials your business produces in one convenient stream. We collect:
Cardboard – including delivery boxes, corrugated packaging, and other cardboard off-cuts
Paper – such as office paper, envelopes, newspapers, magazines, and promotional leaflets
Cans – aluminium drink cans, aluminium trays, other clean metal containers
Plastic bottles – water, soft drink and other rigid plastic bottles that are suitable for recycling
Clear guidelines are provided so your team knows exactly what can go into mixed recycling, reducing contamination and improving recycling performance.

We can collect mixed recycling bagged in bins, or in bags alone, depending on your space and requirements. For larger volumes, we can provide 1100-litre Euro bins, and for sites with limited space, clear bags are available. Collections are arranged as needed to suit your business.

We recommend flattening cardboard wherever possible, as empty boxes take up a lot of space. By separating and flattening cardboard, and separating paper at source, we can collect materials more efficiently and keep your storage areas organised.

All collected cardboard and paper is sent to recycling facilities to be processed and turned into new products. Paper, cans and plastic bottles are similarly handled to ensure your business waste is recycled effectively, contributing to a zero-landfill approach.
You must ensure no food or glass is put into the mixed recycling. Following this guideline helps keep your recycling percentage high and ensures all collected materials can be properly processed.
Greener World London makes it simple to arrange mixed recycling for your business. Whether you require bag collection or bin collection, we can provide the right solution to suit your site.
Our collections are scheduled around your needs to ensure minimal disruption to your operations. Cardboard, paper, cans, and plastic bottles are all collected efficiently, and all materials are sent to recycling facilities, helping your business maintain a zero-landfill approach.

Yes. We use smaller, low-emission vans instead of heavy HGV waste trucks. They produce significantly less noise and pollution, and are able to access loading bays and tight spaces without causing disturbance. This means collections are quieter, cleaner, and more discreet — especially important for hotels, restaurants, and businesses in residential or busy central areas.
Yes. All waste we collect is taken to licensed recycling or recovery facilities to achieve zero landfill. We work with trusted partners to ensure your waste is processed responsibly, and we provide clear reporting so you can demonstrate your environmental performance to customers, regulators or corporate stakeholders.
Absolutely. We specialise in stealth night-time collections using smaller, quieter vehicles designed to reach tight loading bays without disturbing your operations or neighbours.
