Waste Disposal
Wigan
The government has set a goal for 50% of waste to be recycled by 2020 and this is something Business Waste can assist Wigan businesses with. We pride ourselves on striving for 0% landfill and can offer expert advice on where you can improve your recycling efforts. For example, there are over 50 types of plastic products that can be recycled, even if it may seem like one of the harder items to repurpose. This includes HDPE, which is used for milk bottles, LDPE which is used for supermarket shopping bags, PET which is used for drinks bottles, PS which is used for takeaway packaging and PVC which is used for clingfilm. We can also help your business recycle cardboard and paper, metal, green waste and soil, building and construction waste and bricks and wood.
Recycling
Wigan
With a population of 103,608 (according to the 2011 census), Wigan is a town located to the north-west of Greater Manchester, sitting upon the River Douglas. It is bordered by Bolton, Warrington and Manchester. It is thought that Wigan first became a borough in 1246 thanks to the issuing of a charter by King Henry III. Towards the end of the Middle Ages, Wigan was one of four boroughs within Lancashire that possessed Royal charters (the others being Liverpool, Preston and Lancaster).
Since then, the town made popular by George Orwell’s The Road to Wigan Pier has gone on to thrive as an industrial hub thanks to its location along the Leeds and Liverpool canal. Today, it is home to many high-street stores in the Arcade shopping centre, as well as restaurants and bars, and is a popular commuter town thanks to its excellent transport links. This undoubtedly means a rise in commercial waste which local businesses need to find a way to tackle.
Trust
Business Waste
In 2014, Wigan was found to have the most improved recycling rate within the north-west and, from 2011 to 2013, had one of the best nationwide. In 2011/12, the borough was responsible for recycling 36.79% of its waste and this rose in 2012/13 to 48.52%. The result of these increased efforts was a saving to the community of over £1 million in disposal costs. It also meant the amount of waste being sent on to landfill was reduced by 17 per cent. At Business Waste, we can help business owners get on top of their recycling and waste management to keep companies compliant with the law and the area thriving for future generations.

Question?
-
Can I add an additional bin to my service?
Yes, of course. We can provide extra bins for new waste streams to encourage recycling. Or if you’re simply producing more waste of the same type, we can add an extra or larger bin to your delivery and collection services if you’re at capacity.
-
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 work with all our customers to ensure your waste is always collected on time when it’s suitable for you and the licensed waste carrier. We can work around access times to arrange collections at convenient times.
-
What type of wheelie bins are available?
A range of two and four-wheel bins are available to store all sorts of waste on your premises. Explore our bins to see all available bins and information about what types and amounts of waste they can hold.
For any questions and answers about wheelie bin weight limits, sizes, locks, and anything else – read our bin FAQ guide.
-
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 14001: 2015 – Environmental management systems

-
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.
