Food waste

Around 9.5 million tonnes of food is wasted each year in the UK. We at Bristol Waste Company continuously strive to reduce this in the City of Bristol, to contribute in increasing our recycling rates. As a business, you can positively contribute to the City by adding a food waste bin to your waste management package. No matter what industry you work within, your staff or customers likely produce an amount of food waste that can be saved from your general waste at a value for money cost. As well as the positive environmental affects, adding a food waste bin will reduce the weight of your general waste and consequentially, ensure you are avoiding overweight bin charges.
