Waste Disposal
 
Hi! Anyone here who could share how they manage waste disposal in their company? My Mom asked me to find a good service provider but I'm not really familiar with it. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Remember phone books? Look in a directory under waste disposal. I find more information in my old yellow pages I will never give up my old phone book. it is a great resource.

The modern alternative would be to google waste disposal management in your town.

Hope you find what you need.
peace

There should be a Waste Management Dept. in your county. They can tell you the rules for your company's waste and who/how to get it disposed of. Same company that picks up your household waste unless you use an outside contractor. Waste pick up contractors take the waste to a Waste Management facility if there is no county scheduled pick up. Or you can take the waste there yourself. I would put the non toxic waste in a bag, and put it in a provided dumpster or can. If you are paying pick up by the amount of waste then compact it first.

Waste management companies typically are contracted by the municipality. Start at City Hall.

You are right. I have checked it and they gave me feedback regarding the comprehensive waste reduction plan they have. They have a provider that can specifically customize schemes according to the needs. Another thing though, since they are contracted by the government, the cost is relatively lower compared to them being partners with a private company.
