I got loads from freecyle and the ones i don't use i put back on the site for someone else to use! I have more than enough really and my hubby moans about them taking up space in the shed even though most of them are on shelves...you just can't please some people lol!

Jack's Patch (Wyevale) on the Newton Abbot to Teignmouth road at Bishopsteignton has a collection bin just inside the entrance.

Can any homes or workshops for mental or physical disabled near you use them?

We took our last two lots to two separate places that have nurseries as part of the occupational health activities. Nearly bit our hands off -apparently very useful for when they sell their own plants at their fund raisers. A memeber of staff may even collect them from you.

Hi,

Dobbies Garden Centres also offer a plant pot recycling service in all of the stores across the UK (24 in total). They redistribute any standard polypropylene or polystyrene pots or trays to third parties like primary schools in the local area. If you check out www.dobbies.com it'll tell you where you nearest Dobbies Garden Centre is.

You could always ring the H/Office and ask which stores near you recycle the pots.

I get mine from freecycle!

Not sure where in East Sussex you are but we're only just inside the W.Sussex border here.
