🌱 National Food Waste Recycling Week

Did you know that food waste is one of the heaviest materials in your household bins? By using your brown compost bin more often, you can recycle food scraps into nutrient-rich compost instead of throwing them away.

At Thorntons Recycling, we make it easy.

✅ Every new household customer receives a FREE kitchen caddy
✅ Every brown bin collection comes with a fresh compostable liner from our collection crew, making food waste recycling even easier
✅ Brown bin collections are included as part of your service

Fruit and vegetable peelings, tea bags, coffee grounds, leftovers and more can all go into your brown bin.

The food waste you recycle is processed at our own composting facility and turned into quality compost for local farmers and community projects.

Good luck to footballers!

Round 6 of the Division 9 Men’s Football League takes place tomorrow evening, Friday May 29th, as our lads make the trip to Simonstown for an 8pm throw in.

The hard work and commitment from this panel continues to grow with every game, and tomorrow night promises to be another big test against strong opposition. The players have shown great determination throughout the campaign and will be looking to put in another big performance on the road.

Away support always gives the lads a huge lift, so if you can make the journey, get out and get behind the team. Your support from the sideline matters.

Be there, be loud and be proud to support Blackhall Gaels.

🌸 A little colour can make a big difference.

As people pass our Killeen Road facility, they’ll now be greeted by these beautiful hanging baskets brightening up the pathway.

With Bloom taking place this weekend and National Food Waste Recycling Week underway, it’s a timely reminder of what can happen when we give organic material a second life.

The flowers are planted using compost produced from food and garden waste collected through brown bins. What starts as grass cuttings, fruit peelings and food scraps can be transformed into a valuable resource that helps plants, gardens and green spaces thrive.

🌱 What goes in your brown bin doesn’t go to waste.

And if you’d like to see the journey come full circle, join us next Saturday at our Grow With Your Brown Bin compost giveaway day in Dunboyne, where we’ll be giving away free bags of compost and accepting grass cuttings free of charge.
