Waste Management
We are able to offer a complete long-term waste management service for businesses. Skips can be provided for each of your waste streams, and emptied “as and when” to suit your requirements. The separation of waste streams allows us to offer this service at extremely competitive prices.
At Country Mini Skips we are committed to recycling as much as possible. Not only is it environmentally important, it also allows us to offer you better prices by reducing landfill costs. Below is a list of materials that we send on for recycling.
Wood
Timber is reused if possible. Other types of wood are chipped and used to fuel biomass power stations, or shredded and repurposed for animal bedding.
Plastic
Both hard rigid plastic and soft packaging and sheeting are processed in various ways and made into new plastic products.
Paper & Cardboard
Both materials are cleaned and pulped before being recycled into new cardboard and paper products.
Scrap Metal
Ferrous and nonferrous metals are cleaned of contaminants before being melted down and recycled into new parts and products.
Green Waste
This is shredded and turned into compost.
Plaster Board
Most is cleaned and recycled into new plasterboard. Some is used in agriculture as a soil treatment.
Textiles
The best quality clothes and materials are reused. The rest are used as filler material or wiper rags.
Glass
The majority is melted down to make new glass products. It’s also crushed and used in the manufacture of abrasives and for road surfacing.
Rubble & Soil
Rubble is crushed and graded and used in construction projects. Soil is screened to remove contaminants before being used in landscaping and restoration projects.
