Business waste contractors will use different disposal methods depending on the particular disposal facilities they own or on which facilities they have a contractual arrangement to use. Not all contractors have a zero-landfill policy.
We can collect any residual waste that’s left over after you have recycled as much as possible and none of it will be landfilled.

-
It is at the bottom of the waste hierarchy.
-
No value is retrieved from the 'waste' materials buried under ground.
-
The process creates more green house gases than incineration with energy recovery does (leading to climate change)
Instead, any residual non-recyclable waste is sent for incineration with energy recovery. Read more ►
