The commercial waste service run by a council for more than 25 years

One of England’s top councils for recycling – sending no waste to landfill around 1,000 tonnes a month. Almost 1,000 tonnes of recyclable material are also collected each year.

The commercial waste service run by East Riding of Yorkshire Council has been running for more than 25 years.

The team operates a weekly waste collection service for nearly 4,000 business customers across the East Riding, including local shops, offices, restaurants, schools, leisure centres and caravan parks.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is one of the country’s top performers when it comes to recycling waste.

The authority in recent years achieved the highest recycling rate in England for domestic waste for three years running and has been honoured with a number of national awards for being environmentally friendly.

Our commercial waste service builds upon those award-winning achievements, offering a topquality service with a high standard of recycling.

The team prides itself on offering a professional service, with flexible, transparent pricing with no hidden costs.

Our friendly approachable team are based in Willerby near Hull, with depots in Carnaby, Hedon, Goole and Market Weighton. Covering the entire East Riding area, our refuse collectors are out on the road five days a week.

There are six dedicated trade vehicles collecting general waste weekly – and the council’s fleet of domestic vehicles collect recyclable waste from customers on a fortnightly basis.

As well as collecting general waste, recycling and clinical waste, the team also offers an event waste collection service.

Sarah Oliver, the council’s commercial waste manager said: “We are on hand to give impartial advice and support to any client, and we like to think our services can be tailored to any businesses’ needs – being environmentally friendly is key to all our services.”

In the year 2022 to 2023, the team collected more than 12,000 tonnes of general waste,

The team has previously been awarded waste collection contracts for big local events including Driffield Show, the largest event held in the East Riding.
