A line up of recyclable characters with smiling faces peeping out from behind a box: a perfume bottle, deodorant can, toilet roll tube, spray bottle and yoghurt pot. A headline above them reads: Rescue Me! Recycle

Corks

Recycle at home

Recycle out of home

Yes, corks can be recycled at some out of home recycling points - find out more below.

How to recycle corks

  • Corks can be put in your home compost bin, if you have one, or used as a mulch on plants when chopped into small pieces.

  • They can also be sent to cork recycling schemes such as Recorked UK who resell them and donate a percentage of profits to nominated charities.

  • Otherwise they need to be put in your waste bin.
