Waste management is very important to businesses in the beautiful city of York. Located in North Yorkshire, England, York is a cathedral city which attracts over 3.5 million visitors each year and is consequently a huge producer of waste.
The city is surrounded by a wall built by the Romans after they declared York the capital of Britain and the city centre itself has plenty of old and intricate architecture, which makes it such a tourist hotspot. To accommodate all these additional visitors, York’s economy has become dominated by the services industry with businesses such as retail stores, bars, and restaurants being set up and growing every month. Plus, with the prestigious University of York, bringing in a large student population, many takeaway shops have opened up too. However, these services, in particular, create a lot of waste which needs to be responsibly disposed of.
Currently, York businesses manage to recycle 46% of their waste, which falls short of the EU target of 50% by 2020. But using a waste management service like CheaperWaste will ensure that your business easily surpasses this target all whilst saving your business money on Landfill tax.
We have been collecting commercial waste as part of our waste management service in York for nearly a decade. We can collect all sorts of rubbish including general, recycling, food, glass, clinical, and hazardous on a schedule suited to your business.
Plus, we can provide you with any additional bins you may need and we will take care of the legal stuff so you don’t have to worry about whether your business is compliant with current waste legislation – we’ll make sure you are. So, whether you’re based in Micklegate, Fishergate, or in the city centre of York, enquire today to get a free quote or to get some friendly advice from our expert team.
