Our commercial waste management services
There are stringent laws and regulations in the UK surrounding how non-residential waste management is handled and these state that a business or organisation has a duty of care to store and dispose of their waste responsibly, or face prosecution. Whilst it is possible to register for a Waste Transfer License and handle your own waste management within your organisation, most find it is far easier, and ultimately more cost-effective, to have a commercial waste management service take care of it.
Types of commercial waste
At Total BGS Energy, our leading commercial waste management services allow us manage a wide variety of waste types including:
Confidential paper
Refers to documents or paperwork that contain sensitive, or confidential information, that needs to be securely disposed of to prevent unauthorised access, identity theft or the leakage of sensitive data.
General waste
Any kind of waste material that is generated by an organisation that can’t be recycled and is not considered hazardous.
Food waste
Rotting food in landfills produces methane, which contributes to climate change, and managing food waste properly will reduce these emissions.
Hazardous waste
This is waste that poses a substantial or potential threat to public health and the environment due to its chemical, biological, radiological or physical characteristics. It is considered hazardous because it can cause harm if not handled, stored, transported or disposed of properly.
Washroom services
A specialised service to manage the safe and hygienic disposal of waste generated in restroom facilities to maintain cleanliness and sanitation as well as compliance with health and safety regulations.
Cardboard waste
Proper handling of cardboard waste is important to reduce the waste going into landfills and promote recycling as it can be easily processed into new cardboard products.
Clinical waste
Also known as medical or healthcare waste and refers to materials generated in healthcare-related activities that could pose a threat to public health or the environment due to its potentially infectious, hazardous or otherwise harmful nature.
Mixed recycling
This type of recycling allows organisations to collect together, in one bin or container, materials that are commonly recycled rather than separating the different materials into different bins or containers.
Glass waste
Similar to cardboard, glass waste is highly recyclable and needs to be safely handled and recycled to conserve resources and reduce energy consumption.
