Recycling is an integral and important part of the waste clearance process, however many people are not aware of the benefits that come attached with recycling. At Mackers, we aim to recycle as much as we possibly can. This is done in an effort to help the planet.


By recycling waste, it allows us to free up landfill space, which has been a growing problem for the Earth. Businesses can save money by recycling as they will not be subjected to landfill tax. In addition to this, recycling also helps us to reduce the levels of pollution in the air. This is because burning waste can release harmful gases into the air, which can lead to a number or respiratory problems, such as asthma and COPD.

Furthermore, rubbish that is dumped into the sea can have a knock on effect on marine life. Over the years there has been an increase of plastic waste dumped into the sea, which has caused death to animals and also vegetation in the water. At Mackers, we take a positive approach to waste management and wish to leave a cleaner and better world for the next generation.


By recycling, we are saving energy as old materials can be used to produce new goods. The energy required to create an entirely new product is large compared to the energy required in the recycling process. Did you know that recycled aluminum requires 95% less energy that making a new product? This reduction in energy usage can help prevent us using natural resources to reduce carbon emissions.

Carbon emissions are a growing problem that we face in the modern world. Moreover, carbon emissions are causing climate change, which is already drastically changing the climate around the world. The polar ice caps continue to melt every year, which has meant animals such as the polar bear are struggling to survive in the wild.


Recycling paper and wood products can help reduce the need for further trees being cut down. A reduction in rainforests has lead to death to wildlife as well clean air. A disruption in nature can have a domino effect on other wildlife, which we are a part of. In addition to this, plastic waste is often eaten by animals, which lack the ability to digest the plastic inside of their stomachs. This can lead to a slow and painful death and is a growing problem in the modern world.
