Improving waste management on construction sites
Our best practice guide provides advice to help you reduce, re-use and recycle your construction waste.
The guide is for use on-site by staff and supervisors, who can influence effective waste management by following best practice.
The guide covers:
- The value of best practice
- Actions to take pre-construction
- Waste minimisation through procurement
- Site Waste Management Plans
- Waste management and disposal best practice
Implementing best practice on-site has many benefits including:
- Income generation through collection of materials for re-use
- Reducing costs through purchasing less material and maximising skip space
- Less accidents on-site through correct materials storage
- Regulatory compliance with Duty of Care requirements
