Recycle your aerosols

Each year on average, the UK uses around 600 million aerosols – that works out at 27 households a year. The main body of an aerosol is usually made from tin-plated steel or aluminium, both of which are 100 per cent recyclable.

You can recycle any aerosol cans in Shropshire really easily.  Either pop them in your box at home with your cans and plastic or drop them off at your nearest recycling site with the cans, tins and aluminium foil.

Please remember:

  • Make sure it is empty

  • Do not attempt to pierce or squash the can

  • Place in with your kerbside recycling box (or take it to a recycling centre)
