Linton Metalware, established in 1924, is the UK leader in litter and cigarette bin solutions, manufacturing high quality products for the commercial, medical and domestic sectors.

Vital Earth recycles around 97,000 tonnes of green waste per year at its plant at Ashbourne, Derbyshire. Unlike many recycling facilities however, Vital Earth was conceived as a commercial producer of saleable compost and fertiliser products first and as a waste management operator second.

We collect refuse from domestic properties on the same day once a week. Collections happen every day, Monday to Friday, except Christmas Day and Boxing Day in which case collections will take place the following week. Every six months we give each house a roll of 26 refuse sacks, free of charge. Tower blocks and other multi-occupied homes might be provided with large containers instead of refuse sacks. We empty these at least once a week, more frequently if necessary.
