What we buy and how we use and consume things matters to all of us. What happens to things after we’ve used them or finished with them matters, too.
And that’s why this page contains useful information about:
- how we can all reduce our consumption and our waste
- how we can reuse and upcycle things
- how we can recycle more.
Household recycling
Most recycling is collected by Wiltshire Council – or can be dropped off at one of their Household Recycling Centres (HRCs).
The nearest HRC to Bradford on Avon is at the Canal Road Industrial Estate in Trowbridge.
You can find out more about recycling at home and at HRCs on Wiltshire Council’s website.
Recycling in shops and supermarkets
- soft plastics at the Co-Op and outside Sainsbury’s.
Recycling in Bradford on Avon’s parks & green spaces
Some of our parks and green spaces have recycling bins alongside the usual litter bins.
Other ways to reduce, reuse and recycle
We have initiated and supported a number of other projects aimed at helping people in the town to reduce, reuse and recycle.
