Are you aware that your business rates do not cover the removal of waste from your premises?
Making sure that waste is removed from you premises is your responsibility under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
Oldham Council’s Commercial Waste section provide a first class, personalised service for business. We offer a range of bin sizes from as small as 240 litres up to 1100 litres. We can collect six days a week and can arrange for as many collections as you need. We can also arrange for skip hire and special one off collections. We will even replace bins that have been, for example, fire damaged.
Peace of mind – with a fleet of 20 modern environmentally friendly refuse collection vehicles your waste disposal contract guarantees your waste is collected on time, is disposed of responsibly and to high standards in accordance with safe working practices.
Customer care – signing up with Oldham Council could not be easier. Our Commercial Waste Manager will visit you to help you decide upon the right package. The legal side is also taken care of; we’ll help you with the completion of the Duty of Care waste transfer forms.
Other services – our commitment does not end there! We are happy to discuss other disposal requirements such as skip hire and one off collections. We will replace bins that have been vandalized or fire damaged.
Value for money – Oldham Council’s flexible pricing policy means that collection services start from as low £1.65 per week (plus VAT). We also offer a range of easy payment facilities such as debit card and standing order.
Looking after the environment - You could also think about recycling some of the waste you produce. Please see our Business Waste Recycling page.
