At 360 Waste Management, we understand that managing waste can be a daunting task for businesses of all sizes. That’s why we offer a range of waste management services, including business waste collection, management, and recycling. But did you know that one of the most important things businesses can do to improve their waste management practices is to conduct regular waste audits?
What is a Waste Audit?
A waste audit is essentially a review of your business’s waste generation and disposal practices. By conducting a waste audit, you can identify areas where you’re generating more waste than necessary, as well as opportunities to reduce, reuse, or recycle your waste.
At 360 Waste Management, we recommend conducting a waste audit at least once a year. This helps to ensure that your waste management practices stay up to date and effective. Here are some tips for conducting a waste audit:
Identify your waste streams
The first step in conducting a waste audit is to identify the types of waste your business generates. This can include everything from paper and cardboard to food waste, glass waste and more.
Measure your waste
Once you’ve identified your waste streams, measure the amount of waste generated by each stream. This will help you determine which waste streams are generating the most waste, and where you might be able to make changes.
Analyse your waste
Next, analyse your waste to determine where it’s coming from and why. Are there particular areas of your business that generate more waste than others? Are there certain products or processes that are generating more waste than necessary?
Set goals and make changes
Based on your waste audit findings, set goals for waste reduction, recycling, and other waste management strategies. Then, make changes to your operations and processes to meet those goals.
