What is SCE Recycle Argolis;

We are citizens that founded this SCR on January , 2018, with a main purpose: to foster recycling, with the separation happening at the source, i.e. the point of the generation, in order to make recycling simpler and more efficient, as well as the reuse.
Our goal is through actions like training, education, leaflets, etc - every citizen to understand how to contribute to a complete recycling process, in the most efficient way.
To fund our actions, as well as to prove the aforementined idea, the SCE takes care of the collection and separation of waste into paper, plastic, metal, electronic devices, batteries, maps, clothes and oil.

What we’ve accomplished so far?

SCE "Recycle Argolis" has collected, separated and put again into production more than 100 tons of materials.
We maintain a route of collecting waste from more than 30 companies and neighborhoods, whereas in our warehouse come members and volunteers, carrying their waste-to-recycle, already carefully separated at source.


How do we participate?

1. As SCE members: We participate by holding a share (share)
This way we become members of the SCE, and we have all the rights and obligations described in the articles of the SCE association.
2. As volunteers: At home or at work, we separate in bugs or bins, the recyclable materials: paper - plastic - aluminium - clothes, electronic devices - oil, and
Α. We transfer them at the SCE warehouse every Wed 9:00-13:00 και Sat 9:00-15:00
Β. For heavy items (electronic devices and oil), we contact the SCE by phone or email and ask for the collection of the materials via the SCE truck.

Join us - as a member or a volunteer - and take recycling responsibility at your hands.

Recycling with separation at the source is the only way to recycle.
