Discount Compost bins now on sale at Worcestershire Resource ExchangeWaste

Let's Waste Less has teamed up with local charity Worcestershire Resource Exchange to encourage even more residents to take up the increasingly popular art of home composting.

The new partnership will give you the opportunity to see the 330 litre capacity compost bins at the Worcestershire Resource Exchange scrap store before buying one. The compost bins, which are black in colour and made of 100 per cent recycled plastic, are being sold for a bargain £11, while stocks last. 

County Councillor Anthony Blagg, Cabinet Member for Environment and Waste Management, said: "We are very excited to team up with Worcestershire Resource Exchange to help residents make excellent compost to use in their garden and reduce the amount of waste they produce, thus reducing the biodegradable waste sent to landfill."

The Worcestershire Resource Exchange is a 'scrap store' which collects clean and safe waste from local industries and business, diverting it from landfill. This 'Aladdin's Cave' of low cost reclaimed material is then made available to members as a creative resource for projects.

If you are interested in buying a bin from Worcestershire Resource Exchange please note that it is only open Thursday 12pm – 7pm, Fridays 10am – 5pm and Saturday 10am – 1pm.  Worcestershire Resource Exchange full address is Unit 9A Shrub Hill Industrial Estate, Worcester, WR4 9EL.  Visit http://www.wre.uk.com/contact-us/how-to-find-us.htm for directions.  

This offer is only available to residents of Herefordshire and Worcestershire.  Maximum two compost bins per customer. Please note that the offer to buy two compost bins and get the second for half price does not apply at the Worcestershire Resource Exchange.

More than 90,000 people across Herefordshire and Worcestershire have picked up a bargain bin since the County Council discounted scheme began, but until recently, residents have only been able to take advantage of the offers online, by post or over the phone.

Residents of Herefordshire and Worcestershire who are unable to go to the Worcester Resource Exchange can alternatively still buy a compost bin from as little as £8 (+ £5 delivery) by following this link.
