Waste collection in Kent
Kent has many different boroughs, from Thanet to Tunbridge, and Canterbury to Maidstone, which means domestic waste collection in Kent varies. Councils and local authorities take care of household waste collections but for commercial waste collection in Kent, businesses must arrange it themselves. At Business Waste we can collect waste from across the ‘Garden of England.’
To get started we provide free bins for companies anywhere in Kent. This includes everything from wheelie bins to compactors, balers, and containers for specialist waste such as sharps bins for clinical waste. There are zero rental or delivery charges for the bins – you just cover the costs of waste collection in Kent.
Licensed waste carriers will come and collect your bins at an agreed time, date, and schedule. This ensures the safe, legal, and responsible removal of rubbish from your premises. You can book daily, weekly, or fortnightly Kent waste collection to suit your needs and form a cost-effective waste management plan.
Waste disposal in Kent
For waste disposal in Kent, we aim to avoid landfill at all costs. Instead, we focus on recycling as much commercial waste we collect as possible to help the ‘Garden of England’ live up to its name. This helps protect the environment but also saves your company money as you’ll pay less landfill tax for your rubbish disposal.
Not all rubbish is recyclable, so we employ a wide range of solutions. Methods of waste disposal in Kent can include composting or anaerobic digestion for food waste, energy from waste, and incineration. An appropriate waste disposal method will be used based on the material, including everything from general to hazardous, sanitary, and chemical waste.
Licensed waste carriers will remove your rubbish and transport it to a nearby waste management facility for sorting and disposal. You receive a free duty of care certificate that confirms the safe and legal disposal of your commercial waste in Kent. Ensure responsible waste disposal in Kent with Business Waste.
Recycling in Kent
Kent’s proximity to London and close communities makes it somewhere that takes its recycling and litter picking seriously. The individual boroughs issue waste management bins for domestic customers. However, business waste needs to be removed by a licensed company and a duty paid on its disposal at landfill sites.
Kent has a fair domestic recycling programme, offering kerbside collection once a fortnight. Across the county, 44% of waste is recycled or composted according to Kent County Council. Colour-coded bins are provided for compost, refuse, and recycling. This service is not available for businesses, so companies must arrange their own recycling.
At Business Waste we’re passionate about recycling and collect all commercial recycling, from paper and polystyrene to metal and glass. Use the right types, sizes, and number of bins to separate your recyclable rubbish onsite. Your bins will be collected, and the refuse taken to a nearby recycling centre for sorting and recycling.
Regular waste removal in Kent
Book daily, weekly, and fortnightly waste removal in Kent to ensure your rubbish is regularly taken away from your site. Determine a schedule that works best for your business based on the types and volumes of waste you produce. This provides a cost-effective solution that avoids overflowing bins and unhygienic conditions developing.
We can provide a tailored quote based on your specific needs. Simply fill each bin with the relevant waste type and within any weight limits or max fill lines, then move to the agreed pickup point. Licensed waste carriers will come and remove your bins on time so you can sit back and enjoy reliable waste removal in Kent.

Can I add an additional bin to my service?

-
Do you supply a duty of care certificate?
Yes, we provide a duty of care certificate (also known as a waste transfer note (WTN)) free of charge as part of your service agreement. This is included for free every time we collect any type of waste from your premises. Duty of care certificates are a legal requirement and licensed waste carriers can complete them for free – so you should never be charged for one.
Find out more about them in our guide to waste transfer notes.
-
How often will my bin be emptied?
We offer our customers a choice of daily, weekly, or fortnightly collections – so your bins are emptied as often as you want. Our expert team can advise on the correct waste collection schedule based on the type and amount of waste you produce and your business needs – such as your bin storage space and location.
-
What time will my bin be collected?
Bin collection times vary depending on your location, waste type, number and size of bins, and other factors.

We can work around access times to arrange collections at convenient times.

-
How can we reduce our waste?
There are many ways to reduce the amount of waste we produce as individuals and businesses. A waste audit can highlight where you’re producing lots of waste as a starting place to cut down. Simple steps to reduce waste include efficient purchasing, buying reusable products, and recycling as much as possible. For more tips, read our guide about how to reduce waste.

-
Is Business Waste ISO certified?
Yes, Business Waste has received Alcumus ISOQAR certification for:
- ISO 9001: 2015 – Quality management systems
- ISO 14001: 2015 – Environmental management systems
These are both in the scope of registration for the provision of waste management brokerage.
-
What is ISO certification and why is it important?
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental group that uses experts to set global standards for providing innovation and solutions to worldwide challenges. ISO certification confirms a management system, manufacturing process, service, or documentation procedure meets the requirements for standardisation and quality assurance.
ISO certification is provided by a third party – in our case Alcumus ISOQAR, which provides UKAS accredited ISO certification. The standards provide benchmarks for businesses to meet, ensuring achieving ISO certification demonstrates a well-run, stable business that’s ready to grow. There are more than 20,000 management standards, but the two we’ve achieved provide the following benefits:
- ISO 9001: 2015 – helps put our customers first.
- ISO 14001: 2015 – reduces our environmental impact.
