When you dispose of rubbish via a skip with J Dickinson & Sons, we’ll sort through the recyclable materials for you. Today, there is more and more pressure to recycle, to re-use plastics, and various other materials as people grow increasingly more environmentally conscious. This has led to many businesses and individuals making huge policy and lifestyle changes, which will ultimately benefit everyone. Of course, plastic pollution is still a huge talking point, especially since Sir David Attenborough brought it to everyone’s attention through the Blue Planet II documentary back in 2018, which ultimately saw the UK and many charity organisations petition for plastic alternatives to be used, such as straws and plastic packaging. That being said, as a nation we have become a lot more conscientious of what we throw away, but still there are many that continue fly-tipping, as once it has been dumped they think that “it’s not their problem” anymore. Despite the fact that this is wrong, and if caught you can be fined a lot of money. There is also the environmental impact to consider. That’s where we at J Dickinson & Sons come in. Recycling in Bolton – What you need to know At J Dickinson & Sons, we have a 17-acre on-site facility to help recycle and separate materials so they can be recycled or disposed of. Whenever we collect a skip or waste from a customer, it is sorted through our picking facility to make sure all recyclable material is dealt with correctly and other materials are disposed of in the right way.

Explore our facilities Book your domestic skip Book now Our responsibilities As landfill sites are slowly reducing / closing around the UK, it is putting more ownership on you and us to make sure that we are recycling properly. It has become our political, ethical and social responsibility to ensure we are as green as possible, not just for us, but for the local, surrounding area too. Companies are now under more scrutiny to observe better environmental practices, being encouraged to produce corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies, outlining their commitments to waste reduction and so on. So when hiring skips and bins, we are there to offer our support all the way. Here at J Dickinson & Sons we believe that the act of doing is simply not enough anymore, that is why we look to educate as many people as possible. We also look to help guide people in to the materials that they can discard, demonstrating and informing them of why these materials have a second use. For example; manure, veggies, animal waste and so on can be used to generate biogas and electricity, which is used around the UK, thanks to anaerobic digesters, which essential burning the waste and use the gas omitted and generated to fuel homes, commercial buildings and more. Of course, we do not expect you to sort through all this, that’s why we have our site.
