Why do we need to know what waste you have?
It is important to know what waste type that you have as to match the bin size with your needs and then to ensure that once a bin is filled it can be lifted by one of our trucks and transported safely.
Also by knowing the waste type it helps us to better manage what type of waste can go to a particular waste recycling centre or transfer station for sorting. Sometimes this may result in an opportunity to offer a discount on some types of waste.
