No matter how hard they try, hard-pressed local authorities, such as Reading Borough Council, cannot provide waste collection facilities to meet every need. Sometimes it falls to locally based specialist waste collection in Reading, skip hire and recycling companies to meet the specific needs of local businesses, builders and private individuals.
These waste disposal experts are carefully and thoroughly regulated to ensure that our waste is treated in a responsible and environmentally friendly way and that everything is recorded for regular inspection by the regulatory authorities.
Britain as a whole produces about 228 million tonnes of waste every year in England alone. Waste that ends up being sent to landfill often ends up decomposing and producing methane – a powerful and dangerous greenhouse gas. The government is working to achieve promote a stronger market for recycled materials which will, in itself, will encourage more recycling to take place. If it becomes financially attractive to recycle there will be even more companies out there eager to process our waste for us.
It’s reassuring then to know that when such companies take our waste away, it is, more often than not, recycled and reused thereby reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfill or for incineration.
Most people are aware that metals and alloys such as steel, aluminium and copper can be recycled and we all know that paper and cardboard has been recycled for years but how many are aware that even the unwanted soil, wood, rubble and good old fashioned muck that is removed from building sites all over the Reading area actually ends up being processed, cleaned and reused?
Some of the commonly reused materials that are the by-product of waste collection are:
- Screened Certificated topsoil
- Composted mulch
- Woodchip
- Crushed concrete
- Hardcore
So when you find yourself having waste to dispose waste of that cannot be dealt with by the local authority in the normal way, give a thought to the specialist services that are available in the Reading area. None of us wants to see material that could be recycled and used again going to landfill and these days it just isn’t necessary.
