Barnsley & Rotherham Businesses get free waste collections

Specialist electronic and electrical waste recycling company SR Recycling from Barnsley is holding two FREE special one-off waste collection days for businesses and organisations in Barnsley and Rotherham.

On Tuesday 27th of July SR Recycling will be touring Barnsley collecting electrical and electronic office waste. On Thursday the 29th of July SR Recycling will transfer the collection to Rotherham.
SR Recycling has teamed up with Barnsley and Rotherham Chamber of Commerce to stage the free collection days – normally there would be a charge for such collections.

"The Chamber has long been an advocate on environmental issues and it's great to see one of our members being so proactive in helping other businesses take green actions. We have been working alongside SR Recycling for some time now with a dedicated collection point in our Rotherham offices, to see the collections now going across both Boroughs is a really welcome sight," said Andrew Denniff from Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber of Commerce.

“It’s the perfect opportunity for a late spring clean in the office or factory. We can collect a wide range of materials for free which we will then recycle. We recycle up to 99% of the material we collect from businesses, schools, hospitals and offices so anyone making use of our services knows they are being as environmentally friendly as possible,” says Simon Robinson, MD of SR Recycling.
A similar event in Doncaster was so successful that the company had three times the demand that it had anticipated. It also hopes to arrange free collection days in Sheffield in the near future.
SR Recycling will be collecting unwanted office electrical and electronic items free of charge from offices and locations within a five mile radius of Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber’s offices (BBIC, Innovation Way, Barnsley, S75 1JL and Genesis Business Park, Rotherham, S60 1DX). Any business or organisation outside of that radius can drop off items at the Chamber’s offices at Genesis Business Park.

Examples of items that can be recycled for free include telephones, LCD monitors, fax machines, photocopiers, printers, scanners, computers, laptops etc.
