Kerbside collection facilities hindering packaging recycling in the UK

The PETrecycling.cz assessment based on R&D up-to-day results is, that it should be made clear, that all beverage containers, e.g. PET bottles, ALU cans and glass bottles, that are commercially imported into Czech Republic or sold here should be included in return systems with deposits - to encourage the consumers to take the bottles back

Packaging recycling in the UK is being hindered by the state of kerbside collection facilities, according to research by insurance firm Zurich.


40% of people only recycle material that is collected from their doorstep

Zurich found that 79% of people would be "more active recyclers" if their local council collected more in roadside pick-ups.

It found that 23% admitted they threw away recyclable material because it was "too much hassle" to go to the recycling centre. Four in ten people only recycle material that is collected from their doorstep.

Andrew Jepp, Zurich's head of local government, said: "People are only happy to go green on their own terms and that means a heavy reliance on local authority initiatives.

"While people are in favour of recycling, we still throw away half of everything we use largely because we think it is too much trouble to change our habits."

The research found that one in eight wouldn't want to wash out containers after use, while one in ten finds it "inconvenient to sort waste".

Zurich found that, on average, the UK throws away three pieces of cardboard packaging per week.

The research was completed last month via online surveys of 2,486 adults.
