Magpie Recycling | Green Box Kerbside Collection Scheme
Three volunteers collected drink cans and glass, plus office paper from a small number of local businesses, including the Universities.
Magpie became a Co-operative Limited Company in 1992 and by 1994 had expanded its range of commercial services to necessitate the move to its current premises, provided by the Local Authority at Saunders Park.
In May 1996 the company began its Green Box kerbside collection scheme, collecting a wide range of recyclable materials from domestic households. Starting out with a modest 17 subscribers, the company now has around 5,000 customers throughout Brighton & Hove.
