Waste and Recycling
TUB2PUB is back – and collections start NOW!
Make sure your plastic tubs don’t go to waste after the festive season (or before it even gets here!). Bring your clean, empty plastic confectionery and cracker tubs to Thatcham Refillable stall at the Thatcham Friday Market and they’ll make sure they’re recycled.

TUB2PUB is back – and collections start NOW!
Make sure your plastic tubs don’t go to waste after the festive season (or before it even gets here!). Bring your clean, empty plastic confectionery and cracker tubs – think Celebrations, Quality Street, Haribo, etc – to Thatcham Refillable stall at the Thatcham Friday Market and they’ll make sure they’re recycled through Greene King Brewery‘s Tub2Pub campaign.
All proceeds from the recycled plastic go to Macmillan Cancer Support, helping raise vital funds while keeping plastic out of landfill.
Last year our amazing community collected 618 tubs – let’s see if we can reach 1,000 this time! 
You can drop your tubs off anytime from now until 16th February 2025, right at our stall in the Friday Market.
