Egremont recycling cage set ablaze

Published: 02/03/2018

ARSONISTS set fire to a Copeland Council recycling cage in Egremont at the weekend.

The recycling site at Beck Green car park was targeted by arsonists who have caused £1,000 worth of damage to the carboard recycling cage.

Consequently, the materials inside the cage were contaminated and can no longer be recycled, with almost a tonne of cardboard going to waste.

As a result of the episode there will be no cardboard recycling facility at the car park whilst the cage undergoes repairs.

Copeland recyclers do their bit

Published: 27/02/2018

Copeland Council is saying a big thank you to residents who made a real effort to recycle their cans and bottles after the Christmas festivities.

Figures show the borough's recyclers increased the amount of glass and cans they recycled by almost 30 per cent from December 2017 to January 2018.

The increase totalled 40 tonnes - the equivalent of four double decker buses. The value of recyclable materials varies widely, but currently this represents extra income for the council of £7,560.
