BuzzBallz are popping up everywhere as litter, but their mixed plastic-and-aluminium design makes them a recycling nightmare. Despite claims they’re “100% recyclable,” the materials are difficult to separate, meaning they’re unlikely to be properly processed in most recycling systems, and they’re increasingly being found on roadsides and beaches. This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish or Not' from episode 57 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 28th August 2025. While every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time. Always check with your local council for the rules that apply to recycling in your area.
