Keep Your School Compliant With
Simpler Recycling
The new regulations came into effect in March 2025, but
rest easy - these 4 steps will help keep your school
compliant.
1 Conduct A Waste Audit
Examine your current bins and determine the amount of
waste your school generates.
See whether your current waste collector adheres to
the new rules.
2 Invest In New Bin Units
Buy new bins to ensure all the main waste streams are
collected.
Think about combining glass, metal, and plastic into one
‘dry mixed recycling’ waste stream.
3 Partner With Compliant Waste
Collectors
Make sure your waste collector fully adheres
to the new regulations, and can handle your
school’s volume of waste.
Consider using a framework to find a preapproved operator near you.
4 Stay Aware Of
Further Changes
Keep up to date with the
constantly evolving
legislation.
Remember that plastic film
will need to be collected by
March 2027.
