The Council introduced a Borough wide paper collection scheme via blue bin in 1999.
It was one of the first Recycling schemes in Northern Ireland. It has been highly successful and Ballymena residents recycle over 1800 tons of paper per year.

Each ton of paper recycled could save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic yards of landfill space, 4000 kilowatts of energy and 7000 gallons of water!

The paper collected is sent to a paper mill in England to be turned back into new paper.

The blue bins are collected on a six weekly basis and are provided to residents free of charge on request. 

This Bin remains Council Property and should stay at the property if moving.

For more information on the service (including material list) please click on the following links;

For all queries regarding the Blue Bin please contact Operational Services on (028) 2566 0465 or     (028) 2566 0466 or e-mail operational.services@ballymena.gov.uk
