Waste Reduction
Helping businesses to reduce, reuse and recycle their commercial waste.
Are you throwing away profit? The cost of waste affects every business regardless of its size. UK businesses produce 75 million tonnes of waste each year, over half of which is sent to landfill. With increasing landfill costs businesses need to rethink their waste disposal options.
We recognise the growing importance in tackling this issue and firmly believe in the benefits of integrated waste management strategies. To find out how you can make financial savings through waste reduction, reuse and recycling download our Commercial Waste Reduction Pack, or attend one of our events.
Free Commercial Waste Audits for Businesses
Did you know that businesses can typically save 50% of it’s waste bill by having a free commercial waste audit?
This would involve around 90 minutes of waste consultancy, around 30 minutes of which we would chat to business owner/ relevant employee; and the rest of the time we weigh waste by material – we can do this by ourselves but if the business is interested in taking part they are welcome to.
From the data we obtain we can provide a breakdown of a businesses waste and a costed step by step guide to reducing waste and recycling.
