Whether you’re a homeowner undergoing a renovation or a business owner planning a full office fit out, it can seem like there’s a never-ending list of tasks to complete to get the job done quickly, efficiently and in a way that’s kind to the planet. Dealing with the rubbish generated as a result of your building works or household clearout may not be at the top of your list of priorities, but it’s essential for the efficiency, safety and environmental soundness of your project.

That’s where professional waste removal specialists can help you out. With years of experience and a commitment to protecting the planet, companies like us at Go Greener are experts in tackling waste disposals with the utmost care and professionalism. But, how do we do it and what services do we offer?

Unless you’ve required waste management solutions before, you may not know what to expect from a company or its services. From renting skips to construction companies to recycling household waste following a garden clearout, there are many services which could benefit you and simplify the processes you currently have in place to dispose of your rubbish.

 

Waste management services

 

Cheap skip hire

One of the most popular and commonly-used services offered by waste management companies is skip hire. Hiring a skip is beneficial to both domestic and commercial clients and can be used across a variety of applications, providing a quick and easy way to dispose of waste on construction sites and even outside of residential properties.

Skips can be hired for use in a variety of environments, from large-scale demolition sites to residential areas, to collect vast quantities of waste that would otherwise be deposited in landfill or local household recycling sites. Many waste management companies offer a wide selection of skip sizes for hire, ranging from 2-yard mini skips to huge 40-yard roll off skips, ensuring there’s a bin suitable for every application.

 

The benefits of skip hire are innumerable. These include:

  • It’s convenient – Hiring a skip means that you don’t need to waste valuable time and money travelling back and forth between your local household recycling site. Instead, you can arrange for your chosen skip hire company to collect and dispose of the rubbish when it suits you.
  • It’s safer – Large piles of rubble and other unwanted items can pose a threat to people working on demolition or construction sites. When you hire a skip, you’ll be able to keep your waste in one designated area, preventing trips, falls and any other accidents which may occur as a result of unattended piles of rubbish.
  • It prevents waste heading to landfill – One of the greatest benefits of hiring a skip from a reputable disposal company is that they will make a commitment to recycling as much of the waste you generate as possible. This reduces the amount of waste being sent to landfill and is, therefore, a much more environmentally friendly method of dealing with rubbish.

Recycling solutions

Over the past few years, as we’ve been made aware of our responsibility to protect the environment, we’ve repeatedly been encouraged to recycle more and waste less. As a result, recycling household and commercial waste has become second nature to many people in the UK and across the globe. However, finding ways to simplify and streamline the process by hiring the services of a dedicated waste management company has never been more relevant or beneficial.

When you dispose of your rubbish via a professional waste management company, you can rest assured that it’s being separated, re-used and recycled wherever possible. Companies like us at Go Greener are dedicated to recycling as much of the waste we collect as possible, reducing the volume of rubbish that contributes to landfill and doing our bit for the environment.

In fact, we’re proud to have recycled between 90-95% of the waste we collected in the past year. Materials such as paper, cardboard, cans and glass can be recycled easily, however, a lot of recyclable goods are disposed of incorrectly and sent straight to landfill. This is not only a great shame but also entirely avoidable. By enlisting the services of a professional rubbish removal company to deal with your garbage disposal, you can rest assured that you’re doing all you can to limit your home or business’ impact on the environment.

Additionally, when you hire rubbish removal services, you’ll be able to recycle goods that you might not have known you could recycle. For instance, did you know you could recycle screened soil, topsoil and crushed concrete? With the correct tools and expertise, these unwanted goods can be re-used in future projects instead of contributing to the UK’s landfill problem.

 

Aggregate recycling

Aggregate is an essential material for many construction projects and is something that can be produced easily by recycling concrete, soil and shingle. Making an effort to focus on sustainable construction is an essential way of reducing the industry’s impact on the environment, and pledging to use materials produced from recycled goods as opposed to raw sources is a great first step to take.

Aggregates have many uses in construction; they’re often used for stabilising purposes, such as in the production of concrete and cement. They are typically produced by mixing other crushed materials such as stone, gravel and sand, and in recent years, alongside an increase in environmental awareness, have been produced with materials recycled from previous building projects.

At Go Greener, we produce and supply a wide range of recycled aggregates. These include:

  • Forest of Dean Pink
  • Cotswold Stone
  • Pea Shingle
  • TYPE 1
  • 6F2
  • SAND

There are many benefits to purchasing and using recycled aggregates. They include:

  • It’s convenient – Our recycled aggregates, of which we have 10000t in stock, can be collected and transported by us for free – meaning you don’t have to worry about a thing!
  • It’s sustainable – The construction industry produces a huge amount of waste in the UK every year. In fact, according to WRAP, the Waste and Resources Action Programme, the construction industry creates 33% of all waste in the UK and is responsible for 45% of all CO2 emissions. By using recycled materials, those in the construction and demolition industry can encourage sustainability and adopt a more eco-friendly approach.
  • It’s cost-effective – Producing aggregates from recycled goods is more cost-effective than using virgin materials. Additionally, if they’re produced locally, they’re also much cheaper for construction companies to purchase.
