Belfast Circle City recycling on-the-go scheme

  • What is Belfast Circle City?

    Belfast #CircleCity is a new, on-the-go recycling initiative, which we’re rolling out in the city centre and some of our parks.

    Supported by environmental charity Hubbub and The Coca-Cola Foundation, the three-month trial aims to make it easier for residents and visitors to recycle their empty plastic bottles and cans.

    There are 25 bins at different locations across the city centre and some of our parks.

    You’ll find them at:

    • City Hall,
    • Donegall Place,
    • Corn Market,
    • Botanic Gardens,
    • Victoria Park,
    • Waterworks Park and
    • Falls Park.
  • Who collects the waste from the new #CircleCity bins and where does it go?

    Our collection team will take the recycling to Bryson Recycling and from here:

    • plastic is recycled into water pipes and other products including new bottles and clothes.
    • cans are taken to a facility where they’re turned into new cans or other aluminium products.
