Recovery with full legal guarantees
At the Reciclados Mijas plant in La Cala de Mijas we receive rubble and construction and demolition (C&D) waste, as well as green waste from parks and gardens, from both businesses and private individuals. All of it goes through a recovery and recycling process.
We hold authorised manager licence No. 207-GRU and administrative authorisation from the regional Environment Department for the recovery and disposal of urban waste. We follow current legislation and regulations to obtain products that guarantee quality compliance.
Material unsuitable for recovery — so-called reject material — is deposited in the controlled landfill the plant is authorised to operate, which businesses and individuals can also use by paying the corresponding management fee. Waste recovered during the process, such as iron, wood, cardboard or plastic, is stored and delivered to specialised managers for correct handling.

Excavation soil and any kind of toxic or hazardous waste are not accepted at our facilities.
Your waste's journey through the plant
Weighbridge
On arrival, every truck passes over the weighbridge, where its weight is recorded and the nature of the waste is checked.
Unloading
The material is unloaded in the area assigned to its type, ensuring each waste stream is kept properly separated.
Sorting
Our operators sort the waste and remove improper materials, which are sent to specialised managers.
Recycling plant
Each stream enters its treatment line: crushing and screening for rubble (C&D waste), shredding and composting for green waste.
