Bents Garden & Home Green Footprints
Recycling, Reducing & Reusing We recycle our plastics, glass, paper and cardboard and encourage our customers to do the same, with fully recyclable bags, biodegradable boot liners and customer recycling facilities on site. We shred cardboard and reuse plastics to pack all our online orders and deliveries. All non black plastic plant pots and trays can be recycled and customers are encouraged to do this by using their own council pavement collections or by returning them to our recycling station. We also can recycle black plastic pots from customers by sending them back to our supplier. Customers can drop off old batteries in store for recycling. We recycle and compost all the green waste from our growing nursery which is used for soil improvement, mulching or as planting material. We actively encourage our customers to do the same through the promotion of our compost bins. We are part of the recycle your electricals campaign. Customers can drop off old electrical items for recycling in store. We recycle our used coffee grounds by making them available to our customers to use in the garden as a fertilizer, composting and as a slug/snail repellent.
