Recycling & waste at work
We provide a business waste collection service, through a
contract with Veolia. Prices are competitive with other business
waste collection providers available in the area. The service also
includes a separate collection service for mixed recyclables
including mixed paper, glass bottles and jars, cardboard, plastic
bottles and empty aerosols.
Wherever you work it is easy to start recycling in Tower
Hamlets. Recycling collections are cheaper than waste
collections and your business will benefit by improving your green
credentials.
You can have your business waste collected as frequently as
you need, and the service is charged 'by the container'. Prices for
recycling containers are significantly discounted – why not start
separating recyclable material and reduce your waste management
costs.
You must always use special trade recycling or waste sacks or
bin. You should never use household sacks or bins to dispose
of commercial waste as this is illegal and could result in you
being issued with a penalty. Current customers
can conveniently order or pay for
pre-paid sacks on-line.
