Business Waste Collections
All businesses must dispose of their waste responsibly. We offer a straightforward and competitively priced business waste service, with no hidden costs.
We provide a range of containers and collection frequencies to cater for all requirements. There is one simple 'per collection charge' which includes container provision, collection charges and disposal costs. VAT is not charged to businesses within the district.
Our collection services include:
- General (non-recyclable) waste collections
- Dry mixed recycling collections
- Glass only collections
