Commercial waste services

Find out how the council can help you dispose of your business waste.

We are able to offer a commercial waste service in most areas across North Yorkshire. This includes:

  • general waste (which produces energy for our homes through our waste recovery partner at Allerton Waste Recovery Park)
  • recycling
  • food waste - we have transitional arrangements in place. Please contact us for more information. You may be exempt, for example, if you are an educational establishment or a micro business
  • a variety of bin sizes and collection frequencies
  • kerbside sack collections

Every business has a duty of care to dispose of waste through a licensed waste carrier.
