Implement a Waste Management Team
Step one in commercial property waste reduction includes starting a task force or waste management team if one isn’t already in existence. This waste management task force must set long and short-term waste management and reduction goals, in addition to implementing a company waste tracking system. It is vital to design a team of diverse people from all levels in the company in order for the established goals to be attainable company-wide.
Assess and Track All Waste
Are large-scale roll-off containers being filled up with waste and then hauled away every week or does your property only take up a couple of industrial dumpsters per week? Irrespective of the waste removal level occurring at your commercial property, tracking should be a necessary aspect of waste management.
Address the Budget
How high are removal expenses and is it possible for them to be decreased? Maybe you are spending a ton of money on removing paper waste when a recycling program might easily and cheaply be implemented. Encourage management to give consideration to recycling programs and alternative removal services that reduce expenses.
Waste reduction on commercial properties will enable more breathing room within your budget. Implementing waste management services is going to benefit your commercial property and possibly reduce the bottom line.
