17th March 2019 - COVID-19 Update

Public Health England (PHE) has advised that persons handling objects are not at a higher risk of contracting COVID-19. This is because these types of viruses do not survive long on objects. This compliments the advice for people to wash their hands more often than usual using soap and hot water.

Recycling Solutions is actively monitoring the situation and we take the health and safety of our staff very seriously. Hand washing stations, antibacterial gel and cleaning materials are available to all of our employees. All drivers have been reminded that vehicles and in particular high contact areas such as steering wheels, handbrakes, satnavs and handles need to be regularly cleaned and the time and equipment to do so has been provided.

We will still be able to perform house to house collections if requested but we will ask that the bags are left outside in a visible space for the driver to collect.
