Ipswich waste services: how we can help your business!

Having started life in the 1820s as a mining town, Ipswich was originally slated to be the Queensland state capital. However, Brisbane was chosen as it was more accessible for shipping.

The area has a diversified economy with manufacturing and mining industry supplies. The local military bases also provide significant employment. Furthermore, the development has been fast in recent tears with global business General Electric opening its Queensland HQ in 2015.

Waster provides all waste and recycling services to small and medium customers covering general waste bins, recycling services and grease trap cleaning. Additionally, this includes niche services such as confidential paper destruction, sanitary bins and medical waste.

 

Enumerating the Ipswich waste services made available by Waster

Your Ipswich bin day will be made easier with the help of Waster. We offer different kinds of waste management and recycling services to Ipswich businesses. So, in this section, we will enumerate them one by one.

 

Cardboard and Paper Recycling

This is a very important service to avail if in case your business in Ipswich generates a tonne of paper and cardboard waste. But, you can still get this even if you do not produce a significant amount of cardboard and paper waste to help the environment’s sustainability.

With this, you not only reduce your costs but also help sustain the environment, as well as clean up your work premises.

Depending on your waste generated, you can avail of Waster’s 240-litre, 660 litres and 1,100-litre rear lift bin services (recommended for smaller businesses that produce a fair amount of cardboard and paper waste). Additionally, you can also avail of Waster’s 1.5 cubic-metre, 3.0 cubic-metre and 4.5 cubic-metre front lift bin services for waste removal in Ipswich, which are recommended for bigger Ipswich businesses needing bigger bins.

 

Commingled Recycle Service

Our waste management and recycling services in Ipswich also include the much-needed commingled recycling. In fact, you can put all your bottles, cans, and drink containers waste here! They will be sorted out once collected and given a new life, therefore sustaining the environment.

Additionally, Ipswich recycling bins can also help you in saving costs! Know that the heavier your general waste bin, the more costly it is. Correspondingly, the Ipswich recycling bins help you reduce that!

These are the different sizes you can purchase, depending on your business’s generated waste:

  • 240-litre commingled service
  • 660-litre commingled service
  • 1,100-litre commingled service

 

Confidential Paper Destruction

There are some papers or documents that your business needs to get rid of but cannot do so easily due to the information contained in them being sensitive data.

In saying this, Waster offers Ipswich businesses the best waste service solution for this: confidential paper destruction.

Waster offers two standard confidential paper bin sizes, along with quality service:

  • 240-litre confidential paper bin
  • one-off service (120-litre) or the standard 240-litre

 

General Waste

Anything that is considered non-recyclable and hazardous can often be put in the general waste bin. Along with the commingled recycling bin service, businesses in Ipswich also need this garbage or rubbish collection service to dispose of their trash properly.

Like in Waster’s other services, the bins come in different sizes (depending on how big the business is).

 

For the smaller, rear lift bins:

  • 240-litre general waste bin service
  • 660-litre general waste bin service
  • 1,100-litre general waste bin service

 

For the bigger, front lift bins:

  • 1.5 cubic metre general waste bin service
  • 3.0 cubic metre general waste bin service
  • 4.5 cubic metre general waste bin service

 

Grease Trap Liquid Service

Restaurants or cafes must be careful and check their equipment and ensure that they maintain cleanliness and hygiene in their workplace. The grease trap, especially, can get dirty when neglected. But, some businesses simply do not have the means and time to clean their grease trap, which can lead to problems arising if left uncleaned.

So, what businesses can do is avail of a grease trap cleaning service. And, Waster offers that as well!

 

Medical Service

As they always say, “Health is wealth”. But, along with the healthcare facilities that treat the sick and injured, also comes the waste generated.

Furthermore, hospitals, laboratories, and other healthcare facilities produce contaminated, biomedical waste, as well as harmful chemicals that can compromise the health and safety of humans, plants, animals, and the environment as a whole.

As a result, proper waste management is especially required in the healthcare sector due to the reasons stated above. Waster also offers medical bin services for Ipswich health businesses that need proper waste management in their facilities.

 

Waster offers the bin service in two standard sizes:

  • 120-litre medical bin service
  • 240-litre medical bin service

 

Organic Waste Service

Based on what I have stated above in the grease trap liquid service, food and drinks businesses will also be full of food waste.

Some businesses resort to putting food waste in the general waste bin, which Waster does not recommend. This is because general waste bins are charged based on the weight of the bin upon the pickup schedule. So, if your bin is heavy, you will be charged more.

The best thing to do here is to purchase an organic waste bin service to “recycle” your food waste. In other words, your food waste will be turned into compost or energy to prevent it from going into a landfill.

Waster offers one standard bin size service for organic waste: a 120-litre organic waste bin service.

Conclusion

Ipswich Council is the first in Australia to put an end to mixed recycling services for residents. This is due to the ongoing Chinese issues.

As a result, this makes it more important than ever for businesses to arrange competitively priced recycling services.
