Event Waste Management
From Weddings to music festivals, whatever type of event that you are planning, we can help you manage your waste. And by recycling as much as we can we help you reduce your costs.
We offer a total event waste management service, taking care of all aspects of your event's waste so you can focus the event itself.
We provide a range of bins and containers for all types of waste, most often providing segregated bins for general waste and recyclable waste. But we also recycle cardboard and paper, food waste, and take care of hazardous waste from first aid rooms and toilet areas.
We ensure all parties are clear on what is required to ensure your events' waste is well managed. We work with event organizers, production companies, caterers, traders, event cleaning companies and attendees.

Total Event Waste Management
As part of our total waste management service we install a variety of bins in all shapes and sizes – often in bin station areas – to help segregate the different types of waste. We provide 240 litre, 360 litre, 660 litre and 1100 litre bins clear marked and signposted, situated in areas on main walkways with high footfall. We understand that it’s not just attendees that produce waste so we ensure we also have bins for caters promoting segregation and recycling back-of-house, as well as in public areas.
Experience has made us aware that during events people are less inclined to consider recycling as they may normally be so we ensure that we have well placed and clearly signposted areas for recycling and waste collection at events.
We find the public are increasing aware of the importance of recycling and appreciate event organizers efforts to provide a clean and environmentally friendly event. We pride ourselves on tackling all aspects of event waste recycling giving you the peace of mind to concentrate on what you do best creating a fantastic event.
The Key to Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Events
As the world becomes more environmentally conscious, the importance of effective waste management during events cannot be overstated. Event organizers, venues, and attendees all play a role in minimizing the environmental impact of events, and a proper waste management strategy is crucial for achieving sustainability goals. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of effective event waste management and provide tips for implementing environmentally friendly practices at your next event.
Benefits of Effective Event Waste Management
- Reduces Environmental Impact By recycling and properly disposing of waste generated during events, organizers can significantly reduce the negative impact on the environment. This includes reducing the amount of waste sent to landfills and lowering greenhouse gas emissions associated with waste decomposition.
- Enhances Brand Reputation Sustainable practices demonstrate a commitment to environmental responsibility, which can enhance the reputation of both event organizers and participating brands. This commitment can also attract eco-conscious attendees and sponsors, ultimately contributing to the event's success.
- Compliance with Regulations Compliance with Regulations Many cities and countries have implemented waste management regulations for events, and failure to comply may result in fines or penalties. By implementing effective waste management practices, organizers can ensure they meet these requirements and avoid any legal issues.
