Wheelie Bins

Confidential Waste

Northern Recycling Solutions offer a choice of confidential units, and a confidential sack service, collected on a timetable to suit.  The units are lockable, and all waste is covered by a certificate of destruction and waste transfer note.  All paper collected by Northern Recycling Solutions is securely shredded before being baled for recycling.  Unrecyclable confidential material is securely shredded before being sent for landfill.

Our confidential waste service is compliant with the confidential waste standard BS EN 15713, Public Records Scotland Act 2011 and GDPR Regulations.  All employees involved with the delivery of the service are recruited in compliance with BS 7858 employee security checking processes and sign a confidentiality agreement when beginning employment.

Food Waste and Compostable Items

Why should businesses recycle their food waste?

• The law in Scotland requires businesses that produce or sell food, with more than 5kg of food waste produced per week, to present it separately for collection. By not complying, you risk a £10,000 fine!
• Food waste is heavy, segregating this for recycling will save money on landfill charges and increase your recycling figure dramatically.
• Further money will be saved as you become more aware of where and how you are wasting food.
• Separating food waste from other waste streams will also prevent contamination helping with recycling of all your other materials.
• There are many environmental reasons such as preventing waste to landfill and cutting back on harmful greenhouse gas emissions. As the food waste rots down, it releases a gas called methane, which is 28 times more potent that carbon dioxide. By recycling your food waste, this decomposition can be controlled, and the methane can be used for energy, which also helps reduce the need for fossil fuels.
