We have a partnership with Ethos to remove waste from site for recycling. We categorise the waste, record all movements, prepare transfer notes and weighbridge tickets to record all activities and provide chain of custody records. Our aim is to minimise removal to landfill.
Our typical process for managing waste from site involves mixed waste being taken to the transfer station and sorted into its key elements and pre-sorted by weight. Re-useable materials such as timber, plastics, and other substances are removed and offered to construction sites or to community projects. Large items of metal, timber, plastic, cabling or packaging materials are sorted for bulk transfer to the relevant re-processor.
Our recovery rate is typically over 95%.
