Types of Waste
Understanding the different types of waste is crucial for implementing effective waste management strategies. By identifying and separating different types of waste, businesses can reduce landfill and support a more sustainable future.
General waste
Often referred to as non-recyclable waste, including everyday items such as plastic bags, polystyrene and other materials that cannot be recycled. This type of waste is typically processed into RDF (refuse derived fuel) and sent to EfW (energy from waste) plants where it is used to generate electricity.
Recyclable waste
Recyclable waste includes materials like paper, cardboard, glass, and metal, all of which can be collected, processed, and recycled into new products, helping to conserve resources and reduce landfill use.
Hazardous waste
Hazardous waste includes chemicals, batteries, and certain electronic items. These require special handling and disposal to prevent harm to people and the environment.
Food waste
Food waste is another significant category, and when properly managed, it can be composted or processed to generate energy, turning what would be rubbish into a valuable resource.
Services We Offer
Waste Audits & Consultancy
We help identify your waste streams, benchmarking your current recycling vs residual volumes. Waste audits can help businesses save money by identifying inefficiencies and opportunities for cost reduction. Audits often uncover areas to reduce costs, improve recycling, and boost green credentials.
Container Provision & Collection
Available options include:
- Trade wheelie bins (240–1,100 L)
- Skips & RORO containers (8–40 yd³)
- Specialist bins for electrical or other types of hazardous waste
REMONDIS ensures that all waste collected is handled efficiently and in full compliance with regulations.
Collections are scheduled daily, weekly, or fortnightly according to your needs.
On-site Segregation & Staff Training
We help staff understand recycling protocols, reducing contamination and improving efficiency.
Processing & Recycling
Dry mixed recycling and residuals are handled at our regional MRFs. Materials are sorted, cleaned, processed into recyclables or Refuse-derived fuel (RDF)
Energy-from-Waste Partnerships
Residual waste is directed to local EfW facilities, creating low-carbon electricity and heating.
Waste Transfer, Tracking & Compliance
Full traceability via transfer notes, digital tracking, and compliance with Duty of Care. We ensure a fully auditable and above-board approach.
REMONDIS also provides proof of compliance and proper waste handling through detailed documentation and digital tracking.
Waste Management Regulations
Waste management in the UK is governed by a robust set of regulations designed to protect the environment and ensure responsible disposal of waste. Key legislation, such as the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and the Waste Framework Directive, sets out clear guidelines for how waste should be collected, transported, and disposed of.
Businesses have a legal duty of care to ensure their waste is managed responsibly, from the point of production to final disposal. This includes using licensed waste management companies, keeping accurate records, and following best practices for recycling and waste reduction.
The UK government has also set ambitious targets to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill and increase recycling rates, encouraging businesses to adopt more sustainable waste management practices. By staying informed and compliant with these regulations, businesses can not only avoid penalties but also play a vital role in protecting the environment and supporting national sustainability goals.
