Helpto recycle garden plastics

West Lothian gardeners can now recycle plastic plant pots in a local garden centre.

Sustainable plant pot designer, elho, has partnered with Dobbies to provide plastic plant pot recycling bins across 69 of its centres including Livingston.

This will make it easier than ever to reduce plastic waste in the garden and prevent it ending up in landfill.

Gardeners can simply take their plastic plant pots and trays to Dobbies Livingston store for them to be recycled. The bins provide a simple means of disposing of plant pots in a convenient and environmentally friendly way.

Marcus Eyles, horticultural director at Dobbies Garden Centres, added: “Our research shows that gardeners across Scotland are passionate about recycling, so while we have encouraged pot recycling for a number of years in-store, this new bin at our Livingston store will provide customers with a clear message and opportunity to recycle.”
