Offering solutions for paper and cardboard goes hand in hand with Sylvagen’s commitment to recycling. We collect a wide range of materials and qualities directly from manufacturers, warehouses, packaging companies and material recycling facilities.
We have established partners throughout the UK which means we can offer either local tip sites or our unrivalled collection service to transport the materials further afield. We use a multitude of logistical solutions in conjunction with our associated haulier A.W. Jenkinson.
Not only do we offer market leading prices, but it is also quick and easy to set up an account with payment terms that suit you.
