Get a Free QuoteDid you know that as much as 80% of UK waste can be recycled? It’s true. However, actual recycling rates are much lower.
This is a particular problem for businesses, who face larger quantities – and many different types – of waste every single day. Sorting through and disposing of such a huge volume of waste can take a lot of time and effort.
Professional commercial recycling services like those at Waste Direct make it easy. With an experienced waste management company like ours by your side, reducing waste costs and bumping up your sustainability stats can be achieved quickly and efficiently.
We develop customised waste disposal plans for a variety of industries and waste types to ensure that your waste is contributing to a circular economy – rather than landfill.
Our clients find many serious benefits in partnering with a professional commercial recycling company. Here’s just a taste of the ways in which expert commercial recyclers and waste management professionals could help you:
Put simply: recycling is cheaper than sending waste to landfill. (This is down to the UK Landfill Tax Scheme, if you want to look into it). By employing a pro team to segregate recyclables, your business can reduce general waste disposal costs in the long run.
The good news: the UK has strict laws about the responsible management of waste. The bad news? Regulations can be complicated and time-consuming to get your head around. Our professional service knows the law inside and out, so you can rest assured you’re on the right side of it. It’s what we do.
Another great reason to consider commercial recycling? Demonstrating a commitment to sustainability can improve your brand’s image. Customers, clients, and partners are increasingly choosing to work with environmentally conscious businesses.
It’s no secret that the climate situation is worsening. However, by making clear, positive steps in the right direction, UK businesses can help conserve natural resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and minimise the volume of waste sent to landfill. Be part of the solution.
So how exactly can Waste Direct help make commercial recycling a reality for your business? Below, you’ll find some of our most popular commercial recycling services in the UK. Businesses across the country choose us for responsible and efficient waste disposal.
Low on time? Don’t panic. Our mixed recycling service allows you to combine materials like paper, cardboard, plastics, and metals in a single bin. These materials are then sorted at our state-of-the-art facilities for maximum recovery and reuse. That saves you many hours of time and money.
Paper and cardboard are among the easiest materials to recycle. Unfortunately, many tonnes of paper get thrown out by the commercial sector by accident every year. Our service ensures that your business’s paper and cardboard waste is collected, processed, and given a new life elsewhere.
For many businesses, plastic is the most abundant material. From PET bottles to industrial packaging, we accept and recycle a wide range of plastics. By choosing our plastic recycling service, you’ll contribute to reducing the environmental impact of plastic waste.
Did you know that glass is actually 100% recyclable? Recycled glass can be reused indefinitely, making it an excellent choice for sustainability. So if you’re a restaurant, bar, event venue, or any other business which uses large quantities of glass, consider doing your part and working with a top commercial recycling company like Waste Direct.
Food waste accounts for a significant portion of commercial waste. Our food waste recycling service converts organic waste into renewable energy or compost, reducing methane emissions and contributing to a circular economy. Again, for those in the hospitality sector, this is a must-have.
Certain materials – batteries, fluorescent tubes, e-waste, and others – require specialised handling. But that doesn’t mean they can’t have a life beyond landfill. At Waste Direct, we’re trained and equipped to deal with hazardous and chemical recycling simply and efficiently.
Impressed by our service offerings? That’s not the only thing that sets us apart. Waste Direct is committed to providing top-tier customer service and pricing, as well as outstanding solutions. Here are a few reasons our customers choose us for their commercial recycling needs:
