7 steps to cleaning spray cans

Please note that this is a farm plastics recovery club and not a waste disposal business. One of our aims is to keep waste costs as low as possible for farmers. It relies on members delivering clean dry plastic. It will mean more time cleaning spray cans, emptying all fertiliser from the corners of bags, flat packing cardboard boxes that spray containers arrive in. We intend to sell the plastics delivered to keep the annual registration fee as low as possible.
