Collection Services...

Working with its key customers, Grundon holds presentations to promote recycling both at Grundon and the customer's premises. The presentations are designed to make the customer and its employees aware of the cost of waste production, both financially and through the impact on the environment. It also highlights a practical approach to recycling and the employee role in making it happen.

Using the example of the service provided for key accounts, Grundon can assist customers in meeting their recycling targets through the following process:

  • Analysis of the waste streams to assess the volumes and types of waste streams suitable for recycling.
  • Designing of a recycling collection services for the recyclable material identified, including frequency of collections to suit volumes produced.
  • Provision of colour coded and labelled bags and containers for the individual recyclable waste streams.
  • Working with the cleaning contractor to implement procedures that will ensure recyclable streams are internally collected separately and segregation is maintained.
  • Promotion of recycling schemes and procedures to on site staff to ensure awareness, e.g. office paper put into a separate container from general waste.
  • Reporting of recycling volumes to the management, by site, to ensure awareness of performance.
  • Management of contracts with the recyclable reprocessing facilities and specialist collection contractors, to maintain best value for the customer.
  • Auditing of recyclable waste streaming to prevent contamination occurring.

The most important aspect of on site recycling is to gain "buy in" from the on-site staff, for the segregation to happen.
