Haringey Council Commercial Recycling

Recycling is now cheaper than waste disposal. Because landfill space is running out the government will continue to increase the tax on waste disposal making it more expensive then recycling. Your business can save money by recycling instead of sending waste to landfill.

Businesses also have a duty to 'pre-treat' their waste to reduce the amount sent to landfill. Your business can fulfil this legal obligations by recycling its waste.

These prices are inclusive – there is no additional hire or disposal costs and no VAT.

If a business has more than one bin or collection a week prices are less than below:

• Annual Duty of Care charge £15
• Prices are subject to the VAT prevailing rate, currently 0% on Council owned services.
