What can you do with your spare plant pots?


Last night, we had a question at the AGM about local plant pot recycling schemes.

After a quick Google search and a call to B&Q in Stevenage, they said they will take up to one carrier bag worth of old plant pots for recycling in-store. (Some of their stores have drop-off containers if you have lots more, but they couldn’t tell me where the nearest one with this facility was!)

I also looked at the SBC website, which states that plastic plant pots can be put into your black recycling bin.

Recycling further afield if you are passing and have any pots in your car boot:
