Business Waste Ltd was founded in July 2015 and the company based its headquarters to York[4].

The business grew to employ over 100 staff in 2022 and recorded a turnover of £16,000,707 by the end of 2022[5].

In 2020 Business Waste Ltd appeared at number 59 in the Sunday Times Virgin Atlantic Fast Track 100[6]. Business Waste Ltd appeared 27th in the 2021 Ward Hadaway Yorkshire Fastest 50 Awards[7].

Achievements

[edit]

Business Waste Ltd became the first company to offer foil and label recycling services in the UK in February 2024[9].

Charity work and sponsorship

[edit]

Business Waste sponsored Kevin Sinfield’s 7 in 7 in 7 challenge to raise funds in aid of the MND Association[10]. Business Waste Ltd also has a key partnership with York RLFC[11].

In January 2024 the company offered 250,000 free bins to businesses in Wales to help them comply with new recycling regulations in the country[12].

PR campaigns

[edit]

Business Waste Ltd has featured in many media publications in the United Kingdom and internationally through its PR campaigns. These include a Valentine’s Day campaign where people could name a bin after their ex[13], accepting Bitcoin to pay for bin collections[14], and claiming overfilled bins from hospitality venues led to an increase in rats, meaning binmen hate Mondays the most[15].
