Sofa disposal
York
Households in the UK throw away 672,000 tonnes of unwanted furniture each year, with the vast majority of this waste ending up in a landfill site. The Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) says that just over half of this waste could be reused.
So before you throw away your old sofa, think about how it can be repaired, reused or recycled. There are several charities across the UK that offer FREE sofa collection services. Alternatively, think about selling it on eBay or even pass it onto a friend.
If you would like us to dispose of your old furniture for you, contact Business Waste today on 0800 211 83 90.
Office clearance
York
Each year around 1.2 million tonnes of desks and 1.8 million tonnes of office chairs end up in landfill, according to the Waste & Resources Action Programme. This is on top of the estimated 2 million tonnes of waste electronic and computer equipment which is thrown away annually by homes and businesses in the UK.
Most of this waste can be recycled. Electronic equipment such as computers, laptops and monitors can all be refurbished and resold, while used office furniture can be donated to charity where it is made available to community groups and not-for-profit organisations. This helps to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

White goods disposal
York
Annually, we throw away 1.4 million tonnes of household electrical appliances. White goods like these represent a problem for recyclers because items such as fridges contain gases, oils, and refrigerants which need to be carefully and safely removed to prevent damaging greenhouse gasses from being released.
You should therefore only throw white goods such as fridges, freezers and washing machines away as a last resort. Think about repairing or donating them before replacement. If you must throw them away, make sure you use a licensed contractor who will dispose of them properly.
If you would like us to remove and recycle your white goods, contact Business Waste today on 0800 211 83 90.

Bulky waste collection
York
Removing bulky waste can be expensive, so before you throw it away, think about how it can be reused. If the item is in good condition, there is a good chance that someone else can make use of it. So consider donating it to a charity, who may be able to find a good home for it.
If you must throw bulky items away you need to use a licensed waste disposal contractor. This ensures your bulky items are disposed of correctly in line with environmental laws. Any professional waste disposal company will issue you with a Duty of Care certificate which proves they are licensed to dispose of bulky waste items.
Why use us for your York rubbish removal?
Business Waste is one of the leading waste management companies in the UK. We provide a range of commercial waste disposal services for all types of waste including cardboard recycling, glass recycling, paper recycling, food waste disposal, clinical waste collections and construction waste collection and recycling.
Our commercial waste collection services are available 7 days a week. And all our operatives are CRB checked to ensure honesty and reliability. We are also fully insured and hold a Tier 2 waste carrier’s licence which allows us to carry waste of all types including construction waste.
FREE duty of care certificate
Business Waste also provides FREE Duty of Care certificates to all our customers. It is a legal requirement for all licensed waste contractors to provide a Duty of Care certificate. The certificate is valid for 1-year and proves that your waste contractor is licensed under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 to dispose of your waste legally and responsibly.
Some contractors charge for issuing Duty of Care certificates, but this is a highly dubious business practice in our opinion. Your Duty of Care certificate or Waste Transfer Note should always be provided FREE of charge. Never trust any waste contractor which attempts to charge you for a certificate.

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.

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.

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.
