Known for its idyllic scenery and substantial links to history, Somerset is a county that has been central to conflict in the English Civil War of the 17th Century, and been invaded by both the Romans and the Anglo-Saxons. The city of Bath, named because of the Roman baths built in the city, has a distinctive look unlike anywhere else in the country thanks to the Georgian era buildings throughout, and is now recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
With large amounts of countryside in the county, and a population of 948,900, there is a risk that waste could potentially damage the landscape if it not disposed of correctly. Recycling is the key to maintaining the greenery that brings tourism to the county. For waste that cannot be recycled, there has to be a professional, high quality service.
At Direct365, we ensure that you will get the best service around because we look through over 100 waste service providers to find you the best service that caters to your needs. There are a number of different bin sizes available, from standard sized wheelie bins to large, heavy duty front loading bins. Schedule wise, we come when it suits you. All of our services come with the relevant paperwork which is proof of having the service completed. We handle the paperwork too so you don’t have to worry about it.
We also offer a number of different recycling services that deal with cardboard, plastics, aluminium cans, and more. Somerset’s record when it comes to recycling is above average and compared to some, very good. The percentage rate for waste collecting in Somerset last year was around 56%. This is above the UK average which is 43%. In order to hit the target set in 2020, 50% nationwide, there has to be improvements everywhere in terms of waste recycling and as a county already exceeding these targets, Somerset can continue to the lead the way and be an example to others on how to improve recycling and help the environment.
Even being host to a big festival such as the Glastonbury Festival, which plays host to over 175,000 people every year, and is headlined by the biggest names in music globally. That’s a lot of plastic cups that can be recycled. It’s unlikely that your business requires the level of military-grade organisation to collect, dispose and recycle waste that the Glastonbury Festival does.
That’s not to say that your business doesn’t deserve a planned, structured service. With Direct365, you will receive a service that meets The Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011. To know more about how our services, give us a call or fill in a form.
