Recycling farm plastics

[Woolless]

Skip through to the end, with his Mrs burning car tyres in the backround............

Can't remember the exact dialogue of another Dave Angel sketch but it goes something like:

DA:"I'm going vegetarian now as I can't abide animals having to die for my food."

Mrs DA: "Fancy some pork pie, Dave?"

DA: "Just a little bit, love."

Or the Radio 4 prog when he led Amazon tribesmen in an attack on an oil drilling site in his Leyton Orient away kit

surprising how much disappears once a year, normally around about the 5th of November

 

[Wastexprt]

I think we all would if we could get away with it

I see that the fines are increasing for those that are caught

If you have that much why not turn it into diesel.

I think the potential for this is growing via pyrolysis. Emissions monitoring costs are eye watering and are a bit of a limiting factor when the price of oil is on the floor. However, I do feel that there is an expanding potential here

 

[Beefy23]

Does anyone actually turn plastic into diesel ? Surely it's a expensive hobbies

 

[sleepy]

If you have enough of it you can sell it back to the plastic companies, I charge my Haylage customers to take it away then I sell it again

I take all plastics, chemical cans and wrap etc to council tip - think it was £130/t but no weight there at all, one years worth only half tonne or less.

 

[Beefy23]

That's who I currently is who I currently use but they don't supply a bin/skip to store it in , I am trying to keep the place tidy

 

[Poorbuthappy]

Apart from the obvious what do people do with their netwrap, the company down here that recycles do not want it as they have 2 years worth piled up in a shed that they can't get an outlet for anymore so won't pick it up.

Is that b&b?
They took my net last winter no problem but is it going to be an issue in future?

I used to work for Haygrove the big fruit farm near Ledbury and Dave used to supply skips. We'd have 3 or 4 at any one time and he would come and swap them as and when they were full.

Used to get tunnels from Haygrove when I was in the fruit game

Used to be Sittingbourne but they've shut to commercial waste temporarily so went to Dover in June. Just need a waste carriers license which can do free online if your own waste.

Haygrove are about the biggest name around for tunnels, the factory turns over close to £4 million a month!
Spent 8 years there as the main tractor driver until I decided the managing director was a cock womble.

Yep.
Money money money, that's all he cares about. He'd sell his mother if the price was right.

Really he never used to be like that. Wonder if the accident made him change.
