When it comes to waste processing, the implications of improper handling can extend far beyond the confines of a company’s operations. For customers relying on sweeping companies to manage their waste, there exists a crucial legal concept known as the “Waste duty of care.” This duty stipulates that customers must be aware of and ensure that their waste is being processed in a compliant manner. Failure to do so can render them liable for any environmental damages or legal consequences stemming from improper treatment practices.
Imagine the scenario: a sweeping company cuts corners and dumps waste haphazardly, without regard for regulations or environmental impact. Suddenly, the customer finds themselves not only grappling with the aftermath of irresponsible waste management but also facing potential legal repercussions due to their association with the offending company.
At Go Plant, we understand the gravity of this responsibility. Our commitment to compliance extends beyond mere lip service – it’s ingrained in every aspect of our operations. You can be sure that when you use Go Plant, the waste we collect will only be processed at fully licenced facilities.
Alongside this, if you use our West Midlands Depot, your waste will be processed at our new Waste Treatment Facility in Telford’s Stafford Park, where we’re proud to offer a solution that not only meets but exceeds regulatory standards.
Situated just minutes off the M54, our facility is not only conveniently located but also equipped with all the necessary permits and licenses. We adhere strictly to EWC code 20.03.03, ensuring the responsible treatment of road sweeping waste in both sludge and liquid form. Whether it’s solids or liquids, you can trust us to handle your waste with care and expertise. We also have the Capacity to store Road plannings under EWC 17.03.02.
But compliance isn’t just about ticking boxes – it’s about doing our part for the planet. That’s why we recycle 95% of the waste we handle, contributing to a greener, cleaner future for all. When you tip your waste with us, you’re not just getting rid of it – you’re contributing to a sustainable circular economy that benefits the construction industry and beyond.
We recognise that our customers lead busy lives, which is why we’ve made waste management as effortless as possible. With standard opening times Monday to Friday from 06:00 to 15:00, you can fit your waste processing around your schedule, not the other way around.
