Right-size the service
Most businesses have bins that are collected half empty or overflowing. Observe fill levels for two weeks and match bin size and frequency to reality — it is often the largest single saving in the contract.
Watch the auto-renewal
Waste contracts frequently auto-renew for long periods with short notice windows. Diarise the notice deadline the day you sign, exactly as you would for energy.
Separation is now a legal duty in many places
Workplace recycling separation requirements have tightened across the UK, with specific rules in Wales. Make sure your contract provides the right streams and that staff have clear, labelled bins.
