Posters are usually recyclable if they're predominantly made of paper. Plain paper and lightly glossy posters are accepted by most paper mills, but if they're framed or mounted you'll need to remove the frame or backing first. A good rule of thumb is the scrunch test: if you can scrunch it into a ball and it stays scrunched, it's likely to be recyclable with your paper.

This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish or Not' from episode 97 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 4th June 2026.

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has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time.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. On the main Talking Rubbish podcast, we include an additions and corrections section where we update anything we may have got wrong.
