Eden Community Recycling is a not for profit company that grew out of a voluntary group, Eden Charity Recycling.
From one collection point in Penrith’s Fire Station car park in 1981, we have grown to have our own depot and over 80 recycling centres in Eden and over 20 in South Lakeland.
As a not for profit company, we put sustainability before profitability and endeavour to provide the recycling services that people want rather than just the one which are financially attractive. We recycle cardboard, paper, hard & soft plastics, foil, beverage cartons, mixed cans, aerosols, the only company in Cumbria that recycles polystyrene and work in partnership with The Great North Air Ambulance by recycling ink & toner cartridges, mobile phones and used postage stamps.
