Waste Facts
Book Recycling
Oxfam provide book recycling banks throughout Hampshire. Look out for small green banks at recycling sites.

The banks are regularly emptied and the books are taken to a sorting depot

75% of all the books are in good enough condition to be sold in the 840 Oxfam shops throughout Britain.
The books that are not in such good condition are either recycled like other paper, or shredded into animal bedding.
The money raised from recycling books is used to fund over three thousand projects in poorer countries throughout the world.
