ABSTRACT
Efficient waste reduction, re-use and recycling measures will significantly reduce your waste disposal costs. Waste reduction at source – careful purchasing to prevent waste – is environmentally and commercially the best option. Accurate assessment of the raw materials required by your organisation and consideration of the whole life cycle of products will reduce waste and improve efficiency. Likewise, the introduction of preferred waste management options, such as donation of obsolete furniture to charity or recycling of all white paper, will reduce the volume of material going into your bins and, in doing so, significantly reduce disposal costs.
