Nationwide Hospitality and Events Waste Management Solutions
Recycling Lives’ waste and disposal solutions offer much more than just bins and compactors to collect waste. We offer total waste management solutions tailor-made to your business, allowing you to consolidate and manage any and all waste from Hospitality and Events across multiple sites with just one supplier.
Working with large, blue-chip, and SME businesses, we develop Hospitality and Events waste management plans to improve the efficiency of waste disposal. Our WAMITAB accredited consultants and ITSSAR accredited trainers work together to deliver compliant solutions and manage multiple waste streams in the most efficient ways possible.
We minimise the environmental impact of your waste by providing closed loop solutions. Our processes recycle waste like plastic and cardboard, reworking it into new packaging or products that can be placed on the market.

Our total waste management services can handle any and all Hospitality and Events waste, including hazardous waste. Our waste solutions include offering advice on how to minimise waste in the manufacturing process; baling commodities like plastic and cardboard; and managing the locations, movement and size of skips.

Creating Social Value in the Hospitality and Events Sector
All our Hospitality and Events waste management services contribute to the creation of significant social value - so your Hospitality recycling becomes a charitable process. Your contracts can support our programmes to create opportunities:
- HMP Academies - offenders in prison undertake meaningful work, in recycling and waste management processes, to gain transferable life and work skills ahead of release;
- Residential Support - individuals who would otherwise be homeless are supported to regain their independence and move into work and housing;
- Food Redistribution - small charities and community groups are supported to reduce their running costs and expand their service offering as we redistribute surplus food from supermarkets and suppliers to them.
The Impact of our partnerships
Our work is doing more than just changing lives for individuals, families and communities - between 2015 and 2017 it has created huge savings for society by reducing costs to the taxpayer and creating social value worth millions of pounds.
