Commercial dry mixed recycling made simple
Shred Station will handle your workplace recycling with minimal disruptions. We will operate largely in the background, keeping your recycling collections stress-free and free from interruptions.
Our dry mixed recycling services are fully compliant with all waste legislation and environmental standards, and we will provide all appropriate waste transfer documentation. That means you can sit back, relax, and leave everything to us.
For regular customers, we can also provide recycling containers or wheelie bins as part of the service. We won’t upsell you a service you don’t need; we’ll help you to choose the right size bins and collection frequencies based on the volume of DMR you produce, making sure your service remains cost-effective.

At this time, we kindly request that glass be stored separately from your DMR due to the risk that broken glass can pose to recycling operatives. We can provide a dedicated glass bin and arrange glass collections separately.
There are many items that are unsuitable for recycling in DMR bins. Some of the most common examples include Tetra Paks, paper towels, and plastic or wax-lined coffee cups and containers. We can collect these items, but they must be kept separately. We also cannot recycle items that are unclean or contaminated by oil, for instance, used pizza boxes. If unsure, give our team a call. It’s much better to have a quick, 30-second conversation than to contaminate an entire truck full of recycling.
To ensure we can recycle your materials, it’s essential to clean and dry items before placing them into your DMR bin. Items don’t have to be spotlessly gleaming, but they do have to be clean enough to be reusable, without any remnants of food that could grow mouldy or cause harm to health.
You shouldn’t place electronics in your DMR bin because most electronics are considered hazardous waste. We can, however, provide a separate bin and collection schedule for any waste electronics you produce. See our WEEE recycling service page for more information.
