Waste collections We are increasingly using mechanical biological treatment (MBT) to compost, recycle and recover the energy from your waste (so making the most of waste you haven’t been able to separate for recycling).

We offer weekly or fortnightly collections in a variety of wheeled bin sizes and sack and sticker collections – tailored to your business and its needs, making the most of your recycling and waste options.

Recycling and Waste disposal We also offer competitive recycling and disposal rates at the Transfer Station in Midland Road, Bath with significantly reduced fees for sorted recyclables such as card, greenery, metal, rubble and wood, if you prefer to bring your waste to us.
