Whether you're a small family farm or a large agricultural enterprise, our solutions help keep materials organised, maximise storage capacity and make collections quicker and easier. Explore our range below to find the option that's right for your business.
Dumpy Frame
Our Dumpy Frame is the ideal solution for larger farms and growers looking for a high-capacity, efficient way to store and recycle pesticide containers. Designed to simplify waste management, each Dumpy Bag has the capacity to hold approximately 2,000 triple-rinsed pesticide containers, equivalent to around 1,500 acres of use, making it well suited to high-volume agricultural businesses.
While the Dumpy Bag is dedicated to pesticide containers, caps and foils, we can also collect other recyclable farm waste at the same time, including PP fertiliser and seed bags, slug pellet bags, potato sacks and associated cardboard, provided these materials are bagged separately.
Our service is designed to make compliance straightforward. There is no annual registration fee, replacement bags are provided as required, and all necessary documentation is supplied to help meet Duty of Care obligations and farm assurance requirements. With scheduled collections and a nationwide network, Agri.Cycle provides a simple, reliable and environmentally responsible solution for managing your agricultural waste.

Midi Frame
Our Midi Frame is designed for medium-sized farms, providing a practical and efficient solution for storing and recycling pesticide containers. Each Midi Bag can hold approximately 1,000 triple-rinsed pesticide containers, making it ideal for farms covering around 200 to 600 acres, depending on container size.
The Midi Frame service is dedicated to pesticide container recycling, with collections also including caps and foils, PP fertiliser and seed bags, slug pellet bags, potato sacks and associated cardboard, provided these materials are bagged separately.
To ensure collections remain efficient and materials are recycled through the correct processes, silage wrap, net wrap and bale string are not included within this service and should be collected separately. Our nationwide collection network, replacement bags and full Duty of Care documentation provide a straightforward, compliant and environmentally responsible recycling solution for your farm.

Mini Frame
Our Mini Frames provide a compact, versatile solution for storing and recycling a range of agricultural plastic waste streams. Designed to help farms, estates and shoots keep waste separated, organised and ready for collection, they are suitable for materials including net wrap, bale string, silage wrap, tree guards and spent shotgun cartridges.
Despite their compact footprint, each Mini Frame holds approximately five times more material than a standard 1,400-litre bag, making them an efficient option for businesses that regularly generate these waste streams. Their increased capacity reduces the need for multiple collection bags, helps keep yards tidy and improves the efficiency of handling and storage.
Mini Frames are available subject to location and operational requirements. If you would like to find out more or discuss whether a Mini Frame is the right solution for your business, please contact the Agri.Cycle team. We will be happy to advise on the most suitable collection system for your needs.

1400 Litre Bags
Our 1,400-litre collection bags provide a flexible and convenient solution for recycling a wide range of agricultural plastic waste streams. Durable, easy to handle and suitable for farms of all sizes, these bags help keep your yard organised while ensuring materials are stored safely and ready for collection.
The bags are suitable for a variety of recyclable materials, including spray cans, silage wrap, net wrap, bale string and PP plant pots. Each waste stream should be stored separately to ensure it can be processed through the correct recycling route and achieve the highest possible recycling rate.
If you have agricultural plastics that are not listed, please get in touch. Our team will be happy to discuss your requirements and advise whether we can collect and recycle your material. We are continually developing new recycling outlets and are always looking for opportunities to recycle more materials wherever possible.

View Our Recycling capabilitiesFrequently Asked Questions.
From actively talking with farmers at open meetings, farm visits and conferences about the EEC waste directive and its impact on British Agriculture, we’ve come up against some common questions and concerns:
Will my farm plastic be recycled?
Yes, last year only 2.5% of plastic collected by Agri.Cycle was sent to landfill. Using Agri.Cycle ensures that your plastic waste is processed responsibly.
Why do I need to separate my farm plastic?
Separation is the key to recycling. By separating your plastic into the different waste products, you ensure that your plastic waste can be recycled, reprocessed and reused again. We expect as a customer of Agri.Cycle, you adhere to segregating any material recycled with us.
What about caps and foils?
Caps and foils from spray containers must be placed in a separate bag to the rest of the spray container. This bag, if tied off, can be placed inside the spray container bag.
Do Agri.Cycle supply the pallets for transporting bags of spent shotgun cartridges?
No, you must supply the pallets yourself.
Will I receive the paperwork needed for farm assurance schemes?
Yes, all customers receive Waste Transfer Notes for all material they recycle with Agri.Cycle. The Waste Transfer Note is the important document that all assurance schemes are looking for to demonstrate that you are dealing with your material responsibly.
Why charge PAYG?
We understand that the quantity of waste that you produce, as a farm, can vary year after year. To accommodate this, we only charge on the bags of material you bring in.
What does Agri.Cycle not take?
Agri.Cycle will take all agricultural plastics and cardboard, the only thing we ask is that the material is segregated and as free from contaminants as possible. We aren’t expecting your waste to be squeaky clean; it has come off a farm after all! We will not take hazardous waste or other waste you find on farms.
How clean does the waste have to be?
We expect all spray containers to be triple rinsed, all fertilizer, feed and seed bags to be as empty as possible, and try to remove contaminants from silage wrap and sheeting, crop cover, and any other agri-plastic that is disposed of using Agri.Cycle.
Does different farm plastic cost varying amounts to recycle?
Yes, the cost to recycle your farm plastic varies from product to product. To learn more, please get a quote.
Do I keep the bags?
If you purchase (or deposit for Dumpy & Midi) Agri.Cycle bags, these are replaced on a like for like basis.
Do I need to be there when my plastic is collected?
Ideally, the farm owner or manager would be there when disposing of waste as they are legally responsible for the correct disposal of their farm waste. For loading purposes, it is necessary to have someone there to assist the driver loading the material.
There isn’t a franchise near me, where can I recycle?
If there is not a franchise near you, please contact Agri.Cycle head office who will be able to offer you an alternative arrangement. This could be that you are placed on a milk round service, directed to a nearby intake day, or we will come and collect your material directly!
Is Agri.Cycle Green Tractor assured?
Yes, we are proud to be a founding member of The Green Tractor Scheme. This means that farm plastic recycled with Agri.Cycle has The Green Tractor seal of approval that retailers and other agri-businesses are increasingly looking for from farmers.
Any other questions?
Always get in touch with the head office if you have any other questions. Our friendly office team are always on hand to answer any recycling queries you may have.
