Office Waste Clearance Tips 1200 800 CMS Clearaway

Waste in the office is something that can build up extremely fast and is contributed by all employees so it is important to have a good, safe process for not only waste clearance but also understanding that it is everybody’s responsibility to reduce it.

Waste should be cleared often and not hoarded for many reasons to make sure you are working in a clean and pleasant environment that is not cluttered or attracting pests.

In smaller situations you may find it easy to clear waste yourself but in most cases businesses will regularly work with a waste clearance company to eliminate the worry of waste build-up so you can concentrate on the growth and development of your business.

Here are some do’s and don’ts of office waste clearance…

 

Do …

– Either hire or purchase the bins for your office specifically, indeed in large complexes there is likely to be communal bins, however, ensuring your own waste is taken care of is essential and having well-placed waste disposal options will help you keep on top of the amount of waste your business is generating.

– Label bins around the office for recycling and general waste, doing so will help you to better your businesses efforts to recycle and with separate collection days it allows you to keep on top of it.

– Make a note of the different waste processes you need for your business to take full responsibility of the right clearances.

– Hire a waste clearance company who can offer a reliable and regular service alongside expert advice and guidance on the best processes for sorting your waste, just like CMS Clearaway.

– Make sure you are keeping a record of your waste disposals and clearances to ensure that the company you hire are correctly and safely disposing of your waste.

 

Don’t …

– Don’t be careless with your waste, some office equipment waste will need extra care to ensure that it is safely disposed of – for example office printer cartridges and hardware can be extremely hazardous to the environment.

– Make sure your employees are not mixing food waste with recyclable waste as this decreases your efforts to reduce your businesses carbon footprint and unnecessarily prevents the opportunity to recycle materials.

– Don’t hire just anybody to take care of your waste disposal as this could lead to criminal activity and fly tipping – making sure you are hiring an accredited and licensed waste clearance company like CMS Clearaway is absolutely essential to avoid hefty fines that can cost your business hundreds of thousands of pounds.

– Mixing waste can be a real problem and make it impossible for your waste clearance company to safely and correctly dispose of it, so making sure that you are separating all of your office waste will save you a lot of effort and time.
