What types of waste do gyms produce?
Gyms can produce a variety of waste materials, from products disposed of by members to damaged and broken items in the building itself.
These are some of the common types of gym waste:
- General waste – non-recyclable rubbish, such as used paper towels and wrappers often discarded pre- or post-workout.
- Food waste – leftovers and preparation waste from staff kitchens, member eating areas and cafés, where present.
- Plastic waste – empty drink bottles and plastic food containers.
- Dry mixed recycling – a combination of empty metal drink cans, plastic bottles, paper and cardboard packaging.
- WEEE – broken electrical gym machines and devices, as well as batteries.
- Textile waste – old towels, damaged gym clothing, and ripped padding from benches.
- Hazardous waste – cleaning products used by the cleaners and others to wipe down benches and equipment.
- Sanitary waste – waste from any sanitary bins in the changing rooms and toilets.
Gym bins and containers
Make recycling easy where members finish energy drinks, unwrap protein bars or leave changing rooms. Use clear labels and keep the same waste streams separate when staff empty indoor bins into your collection containers.
We’ll help you choose collection bins based on available storage space, access and the amount of waste your gym produces.
