Recycling is no longer optional for UK businesses. With rising disposal costs and stricter recycling requirements, having the right business recycling service in place is essential for staying compliant, controlling spend, and operating responsibly.


At Benji Waste, we help businesses of all sizes set up reliable, cost-effective recycling collections that reduce general waste, improve sustainability performance, and keep sites running smoothly.


Why Business Recycling Services Matter


Lower Waste Costs

General waste is the most expensive stream to dispose of. By separating materials like cardboard, plastics, cans, and glass, businesses can significantly reduce the volume of waste sent to landfill and lower collection costs.


Regulatory Compliance

UK businesses are required to manage waste responsibly under Duty of Care regulations. From March 2025, organisations in England must also separate food waste and key recyclable materials from general waste.


Environmental Responsibility

Strong recycling systems reduce landfill use, cut carbon impact, and support ESG and sustainability commitments that customers and stakeholders increasingly expect.


Common Recycling Issues for Businesses


  • Recycling mixed with general waste due to unclear bins

  • Too many small bins and not enough bulk recycling capacity

  • Collections that don’t match actual waste volumes

  • Cardboard and packaging taking up valuable space

  • Poor recycling rates caused by contamination


What a Good Business Recycling Service Should Include


Multiple Recycling Streams

A proper setup includes separate collections for cardboard, mixed recycling, food waste, and glass—depending on your business type.


Right-Sized Bins and Containers

Oversized bins waste money. Undersized bins cause overflow. Recycling services should be tailored to your site’s actual output.


Reliable, Flexible Collections

Collections should fit around trading hours, deliveries, and staffing patterns—not disrupt them.
