Welcome to Greengate Garden Centres - Committed to a Greener Future

At Greengate Garden Centres, we wholeheartedly embrace our responsibility towards the environment. We are dedicated to implementing sustainable practices throughout our operations. Through recycling initiatives, utilization of biodegradable materials, and the promotion of reusable products, we strive to make a positive impact on our planet.

Recycling is at the core of our commitment. We actively recycle cardboard and plastics to minimize waste and reduce the strain on landfills. Additionally, we prioritize the use of biodegradable pots whenever possible, ensuring that our gardening practices align with environmental sustainability. We encourage you to join our efforts by recycling plastic plant pots in your own blue bin at home.

For recycling your plant pots and trays:
• Remove dead plants and dirt from the plant container and rinse it out first.
• Containers marked with a recycling symbol 1-7 should be recycled in your blue cart or at a community recycling depot.
• Containers that aren't marked with a numbered recycling symbol belong in your black cart as garbage.

In our ongoing quest for sustainability, we understand the importance of reducing single-use plastic waste. That's why we offer reusable shopping bags at cost. These bags are not only convenient but also contribute to the significant reduction of plastic pollution. By choosing our reusable bags, you actively participate in the movement to eliminate single-use plastics from our ecosystem.

Our dedication to sustainable packaging extends to our cardboard plant trays. These trays are crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled content, minimizing the environmental impact associated with production and disposal. Furthermore, we remain committed to minimizing our day-to-day paper usage, recognizing the importance of conserving precious resources.

We firmly believe that recycling paper and cardboard alone is not enough. To complement our efforts, we actively seek alternative uses for various shipping materials. For instance, we repurpose wooden pallets into wood chips, which are then transformed into Recycled Mulch. By offering this sustainable landscaping option, we ensure that even our shipping materials contribute positively to the environment.

At Greengate Garden Centres, our commitment to sustainability runs deep. We genuinely care about the well-being of our planet, and we continuously strive to align our business practices with our values. Join us on this journey toward a greener future by supporting our initiatives and choosing eco-friendly options.

Together, we can make a significant difference, one green step at a time. Visit Greengate Garden Centres and experience the beauty of gardening while knowing that you are contributing to a sustainable world.
