Food waste collection

Recycling food waste

Throwing away unwanted food comes at a cost, both to your business and the environment.

SUEZ offers a reliable and convenient food waste collection service, which helps you avoid the rising costs of landfill tax, as well as reduce your business’ impact on the environment.

Food waste collections

We operate an extensive mixed fleet of trucks to serve our diverse customer base. With on-board computing and our team of logistics specialists back at local depots, we are equipped to deliver reliable and efficient collection of your food waste.

We have a brand new fleet of split-body vehicles to collect food and glass waste separately, allowing for more efficient, lower-carbon collection. This approach is increasingly relevant due to regulations like Simpler Recycling, which require businesses to separate food waste from other waste streams.

Thanks to split body vehicles we can offer a sustainable and efficient collection service for food and glass waste, collected separately but all in one truck.

Features and capabilities

Split-body vehicle technology: Our split-compartment trucks collect food and glass waste simultaneously, keeping them separate to avoid contamination and improve recycling quality.
Lower emissions, fewer trips: By combining two waste streams in one, we reduce fuel usage and carbon emissions, supporting your sustainability goals.
Regulatory compliance: Stay compliant with food waste separation laws and Simpler Recycling rules.
Cleaner recyclables: Separated collection means higher-quality recyclates, making it easier to process.

Food waste containers

We can provide containers that make storing food waste easy and hygienic.

An indoor caddy is a convenient container for collecting food waste in workplace kitchen areas. The caddies use biodegradable liners, so the contents can easily be transferred to a larger outdoor container ready for collection.
