Why your company should recycle

Women recycling in their office

Save money. Waste disposal costs can be up to 5% of your company’s annual turnover. All businesses have a legal duty to dispose of their waste properly, which costs money. Reducing your waste is free and recycling your waste is typically cheaper than landfilling it.

Attract new customers by showing that your company is environmentally responsible. Over a third of businesses questioned said that recycling had improved their reputation within the local community.
