Plastic coat hangers

Hi Kama

Thank you for getting in touch with your recycling enquiry.

Plastic coat hangers can not be disposed of in your kerbside recycling bin. Your kerbside recycling system is designed to handle your everyday packaging waste like bottles, jars and containers, so other plastic household items are unable to be processed.

If the coat hangers are still in good condition, consider donating to your local charity shop or listing for free collection on gumtree or another online marketplace.

Otherwise your plastic coat hangers will need to be placed in your general waste bin.

Thank you for your recycling question. Every question helps us build a stronger network for providing better recycling solutions!
