Greene King are running ‘Tub2Pub’, a recycling campaign to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support and recycle plastics. From 1st January – 19th February 2023, their pubs, restaurants, and hotels will accept your clean & empty:
- Confectionery tubs
- Biscuit tubs
- Cracker tubs
A Greene King spokesperson says, ‘ We’re all guilty of indulging in chocolate, sweets and crackers over the festive period, and in the UK we are buying tens of millions of these plastic tubs every year! Make sure your tubs don’t go to waste and bring your clean, empty plastic confectionery and cracker tubs to any Greene King site from 1st January – 19th February 2023 to be recycled. Simply leave your tubs with a Greene King staff member at the bar or welcome station within one of our collection locations.
After 19th February, all tubs will be collected and taken to a plastic reprocessing centre where they’re shredded, before being sold onto plastic manufacturers to use in place of virgin plastics. All money raised from the sale of Tub 2 Pub plastics will be given directly to Macmillan Cancer Support.’
These are the local participating venues for the Tub2Pub scheme.
