The waste hierarchy principles we adopt in our customers’ waste management plans are Prevention, Re-use, Recycle, Recover, and Dispose. You can find the full breakdown of this methodology below.
For businesses, waste management costs tend to be varied depending on the size of the requirements and are often negotiated based on factors such as the volume and type of waste generated, frequency of collection, and if there are any special collections required for hazardous items.
A typical waste management system can vary across sectors, but a typical system is responsible for the following:
- Collection
- Transportation
- Processing
- Recycling (if possible)
- Disposal (if waste can’t be reused or recycled)
- Monitoring of legislation that could impact activity
