TETRA PAK COLLECTION in INGATESTONE For some years now, IFPC has funded the tetra pak recycling banks situated in Taylor’s Budgens of Ingatestone car park, with the support & agreement of the store manager, Mr Taylor.
The banks are emptied on a monthly basis. Unfortunately, the company that collects the contents of the containers can’t visit more regularly. Often, residents leave extra bags of cartons that didn’t fit beside the containers. Please note that these bags DO NOT GET COLLECTED as part of the tetra pak recycling service, and instead go to landfill with general rubbish.
IFPC and Budgens strongly encourage the residents to flatten all tetra pak cartons before putting them in the container – it will increase the number of packs that each container can hold. PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE BAGS OF CARTONS BESIDE THE BANKS AS THEY WILL NOT BE COLLECTED.
IFPC are continuing to lobby this matter with Brentwood Borough Council – we would be happy to see arrangements for banks to be located around the borough in available car parks etc.
