Supporting commercial waste management for a logistics business
in Bermondsey
Robert Guy Ltd operates a busy fulfilment and logistics facility in Bermondsey, where warehouse activity, deliveries and dispatch all create a steady flow of packaging and general waste. In a dense South East London setting, waste management needs to be organised and reliable.
The site produces significant volumes of general waste and mixed recycling from packing materials, cardboard, plastic wrap and routine warehouse operations. With space working hard in an urban logistics setting, waste needs to be segregated properly and collected regularly to keep operations moving.
We introduced a four-bin 1100-litre setup with weekly collections, providing the capacity needed to support a high-throughput site while maintaining a clean, structured working environment.
The result is a practical waste system suited to a busy Bermondsey operation. Collections run consistently, recyclable materials are managed correctly, and the site stays clear and compliant without disrupting fulfilment activity.
We work with businesses across all major sectors in London and surrounding boroughs.
From offices in Canary Wharf to hospitality venues in Camden and healthcare sites in Westminster, we design services around the way your sector operates.
