Maximise your recycling rates and reduce landfill costs with reliable, efficient DMR transport from SH Smith Haulage.
As a leading provider of bulk recycling collection, we specialise in the transportation of Dry Mixed Recyclables (DMR) from commercial and industrial sites to Materials Recycling Facilities (MRFs) across London and the South East. We help businesses like yours meet sustainability targets and ensure valuable materials are processed correctly.
What Are Dry Mixed Recyclables (DMR)?
Dry Mixed Recyclables are clean, non-hazardous materials that can be collected together in a single container and sorted at a specialised facility. Common DMR materials include:
Cardboard & Paper: Cardboard boxes, packaging, office paper, newspapers, and magazines.
Plastics: PET bottles, HDPE containers, plastic packaging, and bottles (types 1, 2 & 5).
Metals: Aluminium cans, steel tins, and food cans.
Cartons: Food and drink cartons.
Our DMR waste management service is designed to handle large volumes of these materials efficiently, making it an ideal solution for retailers, distribution centres, manufacturers, and office complexes.
