What is a Waste Transfer Station?
A waste transfer station has a pivotal role in the waste management process. At our facility, waste is collected from various sources and is aggregated, sorted and then redirected to the appropriate recycling or disposal facilities. This fundamental step not only helps in managing waste more effectively but also significantly reduces the use of landfill sites.
How Our Waste Transfer Station Operates
Collection and Delivery
When waste is initially delivered to our facility it is weighed and recorded.
Sorting and Processing
Using advanced technology and manual sorting, the waste is then separated into recyclables, organics and residuals. This segregation is essential for effective recycling and disposal.
Recycling and Reprocessing
Materials that are recoverable are sent to recycling plants while organic waste can be directed to composting or bio-digestion sites.
Effective Waste Disposal
Non-recyclable waste is compacted and transferred to certified disposal sites, minimising its carbon footprint.
