Dairy Crest doorstep organic milk delivery
Wednesday, December 6th, 2006
Dairy Crest recently introduced returnable glass bottles for doorstep organic deliveries, although it seems they may now be switching to tetrapaks. Home delivery of milk can help in enabling us to manage all our shopping without having to drive to a supermarket – for example by a combination of using local shops for bakery, fruit and veg, butchers, and delicatessan, and adding to that an internet delivery of supermarket stuff. The pros and cons of glass bottles for milk, which are heavy to transport and which consume energy for washing and sterilising, versus plastic or tetrapaks, are fairly complex. Contrary to popular belief it is possible to recycle tetrapak cartons. You need to send them to the recycling plant – click this link to print off postal labels for the recycling plant in Bridgwater.
