Why set up a Stationery Recycling Collection with First Mile?
First Mile's Stationery Recycling service
Did you know that every week, office workers throw away 1.65 tonnes of BIC biros? At First Mile, we will always work towards reusing, repurposing and re-applying stationery where possible.
No matter how old or tatty your stationery may be, it could be in a great working condition for someone else. Tonnes of old pens, pencils, rubbers and rulers are wasted every year when they could be reused and repurposed.
Wondering how we recycle office supplies?
We sent items in good condition to a number of charities like Child Action and Small Steps Project, who then provide these supplies to children and adults who don’t have access to materials. Damaged or unusable stationery items get broken down to produce Green energy and further help power homes, schools and offices while working to save the planet.
By recycling your office supplies with First Mile, you’re working towards making a difference.

What makes First Mile different from other waste management services in Westminster?
What makes First Mile different from other waste management services in Westminster?
At First Mile, we don’t just manage your waste professionally and securely - we're also committed to a zero-to-landfill approach. That means that we will recycle and reuse as much of your waste as possible.
Anything that can’t be recycled or reused will then be taken to a waste-to-energy facility, where it will be incinerated in a process that generates electricity and heat which is used to power homes. Any remains that can't be burnt are salvaged to become building materials, so it's all put to good use rather than going to landfill.
