About Green Tree Recycling
South Yorkshire's independent recycling specialist. Family-run, locally focused, and serious about keeping waste out of landfill since 2005.
19 years of responsible recycling
Green Tree Recycling was founded in 2005 with a straightforward mission: give South Yorkshire businesses a reliable, responsible alternative to landfill. What started as a small operation has grown into one of the region's trusted names in commercial recycling.
We're independently owned and operated, which means we're accountable to our clients — not shareholders. Every decision we make is guided by what's right for the businesses we work with and the environment we all share.
Today we serve over 400 businesses across Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley, and Doncaster, diverting 98% of the waste we collect from landfill. We're proud of that number — and we're always working to push it higher.
How we work
The principles that guide every collection, every client relationship, and every decision we make.
Reliability
We show up when we say we will. Consistent collections, clear communication, and no surprises.
Transparency
Full waste transfer documentation on every collection. You always know where your waste goes and what happens to it.
Responsibility
ISO 14001 certified and Environment Agency licensed. We hold ourselves to the highest environmental standards.
Local commitment
South Yorkshire is our home. We invest in the region, employ locally, and care about the communities we operate in.
Collection & transport
We operate our own fleet of licensed collection vehicles across South Yorkshire. Whether you need a regular scheduled collection or a one-off lift, we'll arrange transport to suit your operation — no third-party hauliers, no handoffs.
