Reliable Leeds Trade Waste Collection Service

No matter the size of your business, you can rest assured that we’re the trade waste collection service for you.

We assess your requirements, including bin size (240, 660 or 1100 litre), the number of business locations, the type of waste you produce and the number of waste collections needed, to ensure your business waste collection service meets the individual needs of your company.

Trade Waste

Bin sizes to suit any trade waste requirement

With a range of bin sizes from 240L (wheelie bin) to 660L and 1100L (the big bins outside many businesses), you can rest assured that we are able to cater for any size business within Leeds and the amount of trade waste they produce.

When reviewing your requirements, we can also advise on the size of bin that would best suit your business based on the waste produced and the number of collections you require (daily, weekly or fortnightly), e.g. do you need 1 x 1100L bins collected fortnightly or would it be more practical to have a 660L bin collected weekly.

What kind of trade waste can you take?

We can take the following types of trade waste within our bins:

General: Our general trade waste collection takes care of all the waste material from your business that cannot be recycled, including some plastics and packaging and is not classified as hazardous. Most Leeds businesses combine a general waste bin with the paper & cardboard to effectively segregate waste. This ensures that the amount sent to landfill is minimised and allows you to meet current waste management legislation.

Paper & Cardboard: As well as being the most used commodity within a business, paper and cardboard are also two of the most common forms of packaging. Furthermore, as the items are biodegradable, there is a misconception that they cannot be recycled, leading to companies who do not practice waste management sending the items to landfill.

Legal Requirements

Every business within Leeds has a legal duty of care to ensure their trade waste is disposed of safely and legally.

  • Failure to deal with your business waste correctly can result in a fixed penalty of £300 for offences under section 34 of the environmental protection act 1990 and a fixed penalty of £100 for offences under section 47.
  • Failing to ensure that a person disposing of your waste is properly registered can result in a £5,000 fine.
  • If you or someone else fly-tips your waste, it can result in either an unlimited fine or a prison sentence if you are convicted.
