Is Your Business Ready for the New Recycling Laws?

It’s official—the Simpler Recycling rules have landed. As of 31st March 2025, businesses across England must now separate their waste into four clearly defined streams. And no, this isn’t a drill—it’s the law. But don’t panic! At Right FM, we’ve already done the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to.
Whether you’re running an office, a retail unit, a warehouse, or a full-blown industrial site, our award-winning waste solutions are designed to keep you compliant, sustainable, and stress-free.
🚨 What’s Changed?
The government’s new Simpler Recycling rules require most workplaces in England to sort their waste into the following categories:
- ✅ Residual (non-recyclable) waste
- ✅ Food waste (with garden waste, where applicable)
- ✅ Paper and card
- ✅ Dry mixed recyclables (plastic, glass, and metal)
Failing to comply? Risk fines, reputational damage, and a whole lot of unnecessary admin.
