How we approach waste management in Reading

Commercial property in Reading includes purpose-built student and residential blocks, business parks on the city edge and hotels and serviced apartments. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.

Collections in Reading are matched to how much each stream produces, so bins are not overflowing or half empty.

What waste management and recycling covers

Commercial waste management is arranging collection and lawful disposal of a business's general waste, recycling, food waste and specialist waste, with the paperwork that proves it went to a licensed carrier.
