Managing the waste generated by businesses is crucial for a healthy environment. However, it can be a daunting task, especially for businesses that produce diverse waste types and volumes. As the business grows, so does the amount of waste generated, making it necessary to regularly assess the waste containers used to store the waste.
Luckily, our team of experts at A.R. Richards Ltd – the Euro Bin team, has come up with some essential guidance on the key factors to consider when selecting a waste container for your business. These factors include the size of the container, the type of waste that you generate, the frequency of waste collection, and the location of the container. Careful consideration of these factors will help you to select the right waste container that best suits your business needs and ensures effective waste management.
With the help of our Euro Bin team at A.R. Richards Ltd, you can select the right waste container that will not only meet your business’s needs but also help to protect the environment.
Do you understand your Waste?
In order to effectively manage waste, it is crucial to first identify the type of waste being generated, whether it be general, hazardous, recyclable, organic, or a combination of these types. If there is uncertainty regarding the nature of the waste, it is recommended to seek the assistance of a waste management provider like A.R. Richards Ltd who can properly assist and advise your business. This advice will provide greater insight into the quantity and composition of the waste, allowing for the selection of an appropriate waste container. Through adherence to these measures, a more streamlined and environmentally conscious waste management system can be established.

It is important to note that effective from the 6th of April, 2024, the Workplace Recycling Legislation has been implemented in Wales.

What is the size Euro Bin for your business?
Understanding the nature and volume of waste generated is a crucial aspect of efficient waste management. However, it is equally important to ensure that the waste container chosen aligns with the available space. It is recommended to determine the exact location of the waste container on-site and to take precise measurements of the available space. Doing so will facilitate discussions with our Euro Bin team at A.R. Richards Ltd, as they will be able to provide guidance on container size and compatibility. By adopting this approach, businesses can optimise waste management practices and minimise space-related issues.
What size Euro Bin should you have?
Determining the appropriate size of a waste container can prove to be a challenging endeavour. Opting for a container that is too small may result in frequent collections and potential overflows, while one that is too large could consume valuable space on site and incur unnecessary rental expenses. In such situations, seeking the counsel of a professional waste management provider, such as our Euro Bin team at A.R. Richards Ltd, could prove invaluable, as they possess the expertise to recommend the optimal solution for your specific waste and site requirements.
