Comments – There were several more tonnes of recyclables in the building at the end of the month that had not been baled and weighed. We lost 3 days before Christmas installing the new baler. The Christmas mountain seemed much bigger this year. This will be reflected in January 2018 numbers. 

The total for the year is the third highest in our history. I expected it to be higher but the slow down for the baler affected the final number.
