Plastics
Collections will return to Crediton in the New
Year.
Sustainable Crediton are delighted to announce that a
new home has been found for their popular waste household plastic
collections that formerly took place at Morrisons.
The next collection will take place on Saturday January
26th from 10am to 12.30pm in the car park of Peck and Strong
on Lords Meadow Estate and next door but one to Eakers.
Paula Mossman facilitator of the Waste Action Group
of Sustainable Crediton said: 'We send our sincere thanks to John
Peck for allowing us to use Peck & Strong's car park
to continue our waste plastic collections. It is a
lovely big space with plenty of parking and is easy to
find as it is just up the hill from the Leisure Centre.'
Anne Tucker who has been organising the popular events
since they began commented; 'Christmas is a time when people buy
special food that may have lots of additional plastic
packaging. For example the inner plastic packaging
found in boxes of chocolates and biscuits is all
recyclable. And all those big plastic sweet tins can
also be recycled. We would urge everyone to save up all
their clean household plastics from now until January 26th and
bring them all along. The more plastic packaging we can
save from landfill at this time of year the better.'
