Airports Disposal

Our airport waste management services boast full accreditation. Across the UK’s airports, we extend our expertise, regardless of facility size. We furnish complimentary receptacles for specialist waste, food waste, general waste, and WEEE waste – your sole responsibility is to fill them and settle the collection charges. Subsequently, our licensed waste carriers will duly retrieve and convey the waste to a suitable, proximate disposal facility.

The precise method of disposal hinges upon the nature of the waste gleaned from the airport. Our modus operandi adheres to a zero-landfill policy, prioritising recycling wherever feasible. For instance, materials such as paper, cardboard, and plastics undergo recycling at a nearby facility, whereas food waste undergoes anaerobic digestion to generate energy.

What Our Customers Say About Us

Frequently Asked Questions

How does airport waste impact the environment?

Waste from airports impacts the environment in a manner similar to most waste types. If recyclable plastics and other items from retailers end up in landfill, they occupy valuable space and may release chemicals that harm the nearby environment. Incinerating food waste from airport restaurants can generate renewable energy but may also emit greenhouse gases.

Aircraft waste can have a more severe impact on the environment. Chemicals, oils, and other toxic substances can contribute to air, land, and water pollution if they leak or are not disposed of properly.

What is airport sustainability?

Airport sustainability entails ensuring that an airport has a maximally positive impact on the environment. This can encompass various measures, including recycling waste, reducing emissions, and lowering energy consumption. Having a robust airport waste management plan in place can facilitate the adoption of sustainable practices at an airport.

How can an airport be environmentally friendly?

To be environmentally friendly, an airport must diminish its carbon footprint and contribute positively to the planet. Some methods for transforming an airport into an eco-friendly facility include:

  1. Transitioning from traditional bulbs to LED lights to decrease energy usage.
  2. Installing airport recycling bins throughout the premises.
  3. Implementing sensor lights that activate only when the area is in use.
  4. Utilizing recycled and natural materials for any renovation or construction projects.
  5. Introducing green spaces featuring shrubs, trees, and real grass wherever feasible.
