Closed petition Require councils to collect blister pack waste as part of household recycling

We are unaware of any local council collecting blister packs for recycling. There are businesses that recycle blister packs, but uptake is low, meaning many blister packs are still ending up in the bin.

More details

Make it a requirement that all councils collect blister pack waste as part of household recycling, and arrange for these to be recycled. This is a major one-use plastic element in UK waste that is not receiving enough focus when it comes to net-zero targeting.
