If your organisation is sensible about the amount of packaging waste you produce and how you dispose of it, you could save your business thousands.
All UK employers have a legal duty to manage the amount of packaging waste they produce. Producers must follow the European Commission (EC) Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste and minimise the amount of packaging where possible, and use recyclable materials where appropriate.
We can provide your business with efficient ways to manage your packaging waste, saving your business money and resources, whilst also aiding the environment.
‘All products made of any materials of any nature to be used for the containment, protection, handling, delivery, and preservation of goods from the producer to the user or consumer’, are defined as packaging under the regulations.
The main types of packaging waste material included in the regulations are:
We are fully committed to reducing the impact that excessive waste has on the environment. We encourage organisations that do not have waste management systems in place to get in contact with us for free advice on how you can help save your business money and resources, whilst protecting the environment.
With an efficient waste management system implemented, organisations can benefit from the perks of recycling packaging waste.
We offer every business a unique assessment in order to provide the best waste management facilities, personally tailored to your company. Depending on your requirements, we can provide your business with more or larger recycling bins, and more frequent collections depending on the amount of packaging waste you produce.
Wherever possible, we aim to recycle your packaging waste. Waste will be separated and reprocessed at a specialist recycling plant. In the event that your packaging waste is formed from a material which under the law cannot be recycled, we will dispose of it in the appropriate manner.
Approximately 10 million tonnes of packaging waste is disposed of in the UK every year. You can help save the environment and save money at the same time if you recycle your packaging waste.

Service is really good, had many problems in the past with previous suppliers however since been with Business Waste I have not had any problems what so ever. From the start of the agreement the sales team was really helpful and helped with my requirements. I am in a very tricky location with not much room to store a container however I was provided with many options from the sales rep to accommodate my requirements. Customer Service from the staff is outstanding. Definitely recommend 100%.
