Increase school funds

Did you know that if your school has a bring bank on site available for public use, or runs a bagged textiles collection, you may be eligible to claim Recycling Credits?

Norfolk County Council pays Recycling Credits at a current rate of £50.54 per tonne to schools and other not-for-profit organisations that collect materials for recycling.

In order to qualify for Recycling Credits the materials collected must only come from households, not businesses, and the merchant that collects them must be registered with us (most are). Any type of recyclable household waste can be collected, including paper and card, glass, cans and tins and textiles and shoes.

For further information, and to download an application form, please visit our website. Alternatively please call 0344 800 8004 with any queries.

We are also happy to offer you advice regarding installing new or additional banks or starting up recycling collections. Please call us on the above number.
