A Commercial Trash Service Helps Clear Trash And Recyclables From Your Building
Posted on: 5 January 2019
When you operate a large office, you usually generate a lot of trash. Office trash contains materials that can be recycled, so you'll need a waste management system in place for removing, sorting, and storing trash until it's hauled away. Working with a commercial trash service is necessary since you'll have too much to use a standard curbside garbage container. Here are some services you may want for your office building.
Recycling Dumpster
There are two basic types of recycling dumpsters you can rent for your property and one is for cardboard only. This type of dumpster is useful if you get a lot of inventory delivered and have a large number of boxes to get rid of weekly. This dumpster has an enclosed design with a slot that requires the boxes to be flattened before they're put inside. By flattening the boxes first, they take up much less room and the dumpster won't need emptied as often. The other type of recycling dumpster is one that has a cover that lifts up so you can throw in everything that can be recycled. This mixes together boxes, paper, glass, and metal. However, you'll want to understand how the trash service you use regulates the use of a mixed recycling container so you don't toss in things that aren't permitted.
Trash Dumpster
The trash service you use can help you decide on the right dumpster for your business. Since larger ones cost more money, you want the smallest size that will handle your weekly trash. If you produce a lot of trash or if you want to secure the trash you place in the dumpster, then an option is to get a dumpster with a compactor. You can throw all the trash from your facility in the dumpster each evening and the compactor compresses it so no one can sort through your garbage dumpster to look for sensitive information.
Your trash service will collect the trash on a set schedule such as once per week, and they may also make extra pickups if you have an exceptionally large about of trash you need to get rid of before the next scheduled service call. If you have a smaller office, you may not generate much trash and a small dumpster may be all you need. If you operate a larger office building, then you might need to use many services from your trash company including help with developing a waste management system that helps you manage your trash and recyclables efficiently. Contact a company, like Curbside DataControl, to get started.
