We’re walking for wellbeing

Fresh Start Waste is proud to support the Walk for Wellbeing, raising money for Hospitality Action, a charity that supports the workforce of the hospitality industry and their families.

On Sunday, 18 October, our Team will be tackling the 20 km Manchester walk, focusing on wellbeing, teamwork and giving back to a sector that means so much to us.

It’s a great cause and a great reason for us to get moving together.

If you’re able to donate, please use our official Walk for Wellbeing donation link: https://uk.emma-live.com/WFW2026/fundraisers/team/1000000314

We’ve been awarded a Green Apple!

Fresh Start Waste has been recognised internationally for ‘doing what others wouldn’t’ – increasing mixed-recovery from 41% to over 60% and investing heavily in better recycling well before new legislation came into force.

Our Swinton Materials Recovery Facility now processes around 15,000 tonnes of dry mixed recycling each year, keeping valuable materials in use and the rest out of landfill.

We have also pledged £1.5m to expand the site (subject to planning) to provide space for new technology to release even more recyclable material from bagged loads.

This award proves that when you choose Fresh Start Waste, you choose a partner that invests, innovates and puts transparency first.

Women’s Health Week Europe!

This week Fresh Start Waste is celebrating by supporting the women who work with us with a week of activities focused on wellbeing, awareness and self-care.

We will run sessions, share resources and create conversations, because caring for our people is as important as caring for the planet.

Healthy teams build strong communities, and we are proud to support women’s health, because when women feel valued, confident and cared for, everyone wins.

Here’s to a week of learning, listening, and looking out for one another.

A huge thank you to everyone who popped along to our Macmillan Coffee Morning!

Colleagues across our sites came together to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, with plenty of cake, conversation and kindness along the way.

We will let you know the final amount raised shortly, once all the cash donations are in – but we’re already delighted with the generosity shown across Team FSW.

Each slice, sip and smile made a difference.

Imagine drinking a beverage, throwing away the can… and that same can reappearing as a brand-new one a few weeks later. That’s closed-loop recycling, and it’s one of the most planet-friendly ways to deal with everyday waste.

Materials such as aluminium, glass and cardboard can be recycled repeatedly without ever going to landfill. When they are properly handled, they stay in use rather than being lost, which means less waste, less pollution, and less pressure on the natural world around us.

At Fresh Start Waste, we are proud to help businesses keep valuable materials in circulation. All of our collected items are sorted at our Materials Recovery Facility and, where possible, sent for recycling or repurposing.

Small changes can have a significant impact.

Another 5-star review for Team FSW!

We love to hear from our customers, and Mark’s recent feedback is just one example of the service we aim to deliver.

New business customer Mark said: “Kyle was very helpful and sorted everything out and gave the best price in the area.

When you are busy setting up a new business, waste management is one more thing to worry about, so it is reassuring to know Kyle made it simple and straightforward.”

Thank you for the review, Mark!

And good job, Kyle!

We’re excited to share something new that will help us serve our customers even better, our online training platform Atlas, powered by iHasco, launching this September!

Everyone can learn easily and conveniently with Atlas at Fresh Start Waste. It keeps our Team compliant, confident and informed, so every collection, every interaction and every service we deliver meets the highest standards of safety and professionalism.

Investing in smarter training is also an investment in our customers. It means safer operations, better communication and a stronger commitment to sustainability in everything we do.

Together we are creating a culture of learning and excellence that benefits everyone.

But what if the plastics that are hard to recycle could be reused?

Scottish Water has used new technology to prepare around 72,000 laboratory sample bottles for recycling in Scotland. Now, the process is being expanded to other tricky waste streams, including Petri dishes and pipette tips.

It’s a fantastic example of innovation creating new opportunities for recycling.

And it made us wonder…

Does your business have trouble with recycling something?

Let us know what it is in the comments.

We would love to hear from businesses about what waste streams they would like to see improved recycling solutions for.

Well done, from all at Fresh Start, to Max!

We had a lovely message recently from Lymm Golf Club commending Max for his actions when a member of the public fell, hitting her head.

Max acted quickly, putting her into the recovery position using his first aid knowledge, calling 999 and staying with her to reassure her.

Glad to hear Max’s professionalism, quick thinking and care for others made such a positive impression.

Moments like this are a reminder that our Team is about more than just the job. It’s also about caring for our people.

Good job, Max. We are so proud of you!

Do you know what happens to your business waste once it leaves your premises?

That’s a fair question to ask.

With more action being taken against illegal waste operations, now is a good time to think about who is managing your commercial waste and what happens to it after collection.

Waste management is much more than putting your bins out.

You should feel confident that your waste is being treated responsibly and is going to the right place.
Fresh Start Waste offers businesses across the North West reliable collections, real recycling and transparent waste management.

Not sure your current waste partner gives you that confidence?

Contact our Team and give your waste a new beginning.
