Reviewed by Field Sports Channel TV, who saw the recycling line in action, this recycling process is the only one of its kind and allows both gun clubs and commercial game shoots to dispose of their cartridges responsibly. A feather in the cap of an industry that is under increasing pressure to become more environmentally aware.
Depending on the number of cartridges you accumulate, we offer different-sized bags for you to fill. The smaller bag, which is about the size of a domestic wheelie bin, holds 4,200 spent shotgun cartridges - perfect for a 10-gun 8-day shoot. The larger bag holds 21,000 spent shotgun cartridges, ideal for a commercial game shoot or clay shoot.
All you need to do to ensure they are 100% recycled is keep each bag 100% spent shotgun cartridges – no other waste – that’s it! Keep the bags dry - either undercover or covered by a tarpaulin – and we’ll take care of the rest.
Opt for collection or make use of our drop-off service – just take a look at our map to find your nearest hub.
Six years ago, we founded a collaborative partnership with Laporte Industries UK. Working together we offer a delivery and collection service for all clay shooters.
Simple and convenient, Laporte can offer shooting grounds spent shotgun cartridge removal on the same day as their clay deliveries. We collect these bags from Laporte Industries UK., all to be 100% recycled, via our unique process. This partnership, so far, has saved millions of cartridges going to landfill or being burnt on-site.
this is the easy way for shooting grounds to become more environmentally friendly, ethical and responsible.
