Waste disposal and management might not be the most glamorous topic, but itโ€™s a crucial part of running a care home efficiently. Not only does it ensure the safety and well-being of residents and staff, but it also contributes to a cleaner environment. ๐ŸŒ
Let's explore how care homes can master the art of waste management, whilst also saving money. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Festive jumpers on, Secret Santa gifts exchanged (with plenty of laughs), and a buffet lunch that definitely didnโ€™t disappoint ๐ŸŽ„

Our Zest Recycle and Windsor Waste Management teams came together to celebrate Christmas jumper day and enjoy some well-earned downtime together in the run-up to the festive break.

Alongside the fun, weโ€™re proud to have raised over ยฃ200 for The Indee Rose Trust through our Christmas charity raffle, a fantastic cause close to our hearts.

A great way to wrap up the year with the people who make it all happen. โœจ

"Wishcycling" - What is it? And why is it a problem?

Generally, wishcycling is putting non-recyclable or contaminated items into a recycling bin with the hope that they will be recycled. โŒ

Although often well-intentioned, wishcycling causes significant problems, including contaminating good recyclables, damaging machinery, reducing the quality of recycled products, and ultimately sending more waste to landfills.

โžก๏ธ Wet Cardboard is commonly "wishcycled"
The soggy boxes clog up machinery during automated sorting which can cause significant damage. ๐Ÿ’ง
Instead, be sure to store your cardboard in a dry area and dispose of any wet cardboard in the general waste.

So you've responsibly segregated your food waste ๐ŸŒ
But what happens next?

Here's a simple glimpse at the Food Waste Journey ๐Ÿšš

1๏ธโƒฃ Food waste is placed into wheelie bins ready for collection and treatment
2๏ธโƒฃ Wheelie bins are either exchanged or emptied by an approved food waste collection partner
3๏ธโƒฃ Food waste is returned to an approved Anaerobic Digestion (AD) Facility and treated to break down the organic material
4๏ธโƒฃ Renewable energy and biofertilisers are generated from the process

Zest Recycle help recommend the most appropriate food waste solution depending on your business needs and will ensure your commercial and business food waste collections are optimised, so you receive a hygienic and cost-effective service.

Do you know your paper from your kitchen roll?

During site audits, we often find kitchen roll, tissues, or blue roll in the wrong bin...
So which one would you choose?

The correct answer is General Waste.

While office paper can be easily recycled, kitchen roll and tissues are made of short fibres which are not high enough quality to be recycled into new products.

Don't fill your DMR bin with the wrong waste. Access our helpful Start Fresh signage to display by your segregation stations to increase your recycling rates and reduce contamination ๐Ÿ‘‡
