Fridge Freezer Collection: Exhibition Centre Case Study

Exhibition Centre Fridge Recycling Case Study

We recently received an enquiry from an exhibition centre located in Derby, UK. The business needed help disposing of 14 free-standing fridge freezers on site. As this WEEE waste is hazardous, the centre contacted our specialist team for assistance.

How Did We Help?

Our team organised a swift collection for the fridge freezers, transporting the waste to licensed recycling facilities. This enabled the business to not only clear their waste away efficiently, but also through environmentally-friendly processes. It is important to dispose of this waste type with a professional business, due to the ozone-depleting gases they contain which can be harmful to the environment when disposed of wrongly.

Once our team arrived at the collection, the customer needed the removal of 18 fridge freezers, rather than 14. After authorising the extra waste and being signed off, we provided a service on the spot for this excess waste. All of the fridge freezers were loaded onto the lorry, with our customer happy that the barrier was overcome quickly. 

When leaving, we presented the various other waste types our business can recycle. The customer then enquired for the disposal of batteries, for which we have now organised a new collection date. Again, as hazardous waste, using our service ensures safety and compliance with regulations associated with these waste types.

The Cost and Environmental Benefits

As a business dedicated to sustainability, all of the waste we collect will be recycled where possible. The materials can then be repurposed into new products, saving scarce raw materials and creating a circular approach. 

With our help, the customer was able to reduce their carbon footprint, whilst using a cost-effective disposal route. By opting for our professional recycling services, the customer avoided often hefty disposal fees associated with landfill sites. They also benefited from the cost savings related to reduced waste management expenses.
