Question 1

What is poly pipe recycling?

Accepted Answer

Poly pipe recycling is the process of collecting used polyethylene pipes and converting them into reusable materials. These pipes are common in agriculture, mining, and construction industries. Recycling prevents them from ending up in landfills and is an eco-friendly way to manage plastic waste.

Question 2

What types of poly pipe can be recycled?

Accepted Answer

We accept HDPE, MDPE and LDPE poly pipes of various sizes and shapes. Whether your pipes are coiled, straight or in sections, we can process them. Both industrial and domestic poly pipes are suitable, as long as they are primarily made of polyethylene.

Question 3

Why is it important to recycle poly pipe?

Accepted Answer

Recycling poly pipe helps reduce environmental pollution and supports sustainability. Instead of burning or dumping, recycling saves resources and energy and reduces the demand for new plastic production. This makes it a smart choice for eco-conscious individuals and businesses.

Question 4

Do the pipes need to be clean before recycling?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pipes should be reasonably clean with minimal dirt or debris. Please remove large clumps of soil, liquids or attachments where possible. Clean pipes ensure smoother recycling and better output quality, and our team can guide you on acceptable conditions.

Question 5

Can poly pipe with metal fittings be recycled?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we accept poly pipe with metal ends or fittings attached. However, it is ideal to remove them before recycling to avoid extra processing. We can separate metal components if needed, and clean, metal-free pipes may receive better rates.

Question 6

Is there a minimum or maximum quantity required?

Accepted Answer

We cater to all volumes, from smaller loads to large commercial quantities. There is no strict minimum or maximum. Whether you have a few coils or tonnes of pipe, we will work with you to arrange a convenient recycling solution.

Question 7

What happens to the recycled poly pipe?

Accepted Answer

After collection, the pipes are shredded and melted down into plastic granules. These granules are then reused to create new products such as piping, construction plastics or packaging materials. This process reduces waste and supports a circular economy.

Question 8

Do you offer pickup services for poly pipe recycling?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer pickup services for bulk quantities depending on your location. Our team will coordinate pickup time and transport for you. For smaller quantities, you can also drop them off at our facility.

Question 9

Do you provide a certificate or documentation for recycled material?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide recycling certificates and documentation for clients who need waste records for compliance, reporting or sustainability goals. Our team ensures proper documentation for every load recycled when requested.

Question 10

How can I schedule a poly pipe drop-off or pickup?

Accepted Answer
