Why is waste management important in Birmingham?
Each year, more than 463,000 tonnes of waste is collected in Birmingham.
Managing these vast quantities of rubbish is important for keeping our streets clean and the environment safe from pollution.
Roughly 45% of the UK's waste gets recycled, with the majority of the rest being sent to landfill or incinerated. In Birmingham this rate is even lower at 22.1%.
In landfill, the decomposing waste produces gasses, such as methane, that damage the ozone layer and contribute to global warming.
By managing our waste properly and recycling more, we can lessen the damage we cause to the environment.
Can I take commercial waste to the tip?
No. To be able to dispose of your own commercial waste, you must register as a waste carrier and potentially may need to apply for a waste permit. It’s a lot of work, which is why First Mile is here to help, ready to do it all for you!
