What Is General Waste?

General waste includes all non-recyclable materials that typically end up in landfill

General waste collection in Adelaide

Common General Waste Materials

Household & Office Items

  • Non-recyclable plastics
  • Food packaging
  • Plastic wrap and film
  • Disposable items
  • Tissues and paper towels

Commercial Items

  • Non-recyclable packaging
  • Composite materials
  • Damaged goods

  • General office waste

General waste is any material that cannot be recycled or composted through standard processes. While we encourage recycling whenever possible, we understand that some waste inevitably ends up in general waste bins.

Our general waste collection service ensures this waste is disposed of responsibly and in compliance with all relevant regulations.

General Waste Disposal Process

Understanding how your general waste is processed after collection

Our Responsible Disposal Approach

At Bin Hire Adelaide, we take our environmental responsibilities seriously. While general waste typically goes to landfill, we employ several strategies to minimize environmental impact and maximize resource recovery where possible.

Collection & Transportation

Our modern fleet of collection vehicles ensures efficient pickup and transportation of your general waste, minimizing our carbon footprint through optimized routes.

Waste Sorting

Where feasible, we conduct basic sorting to recover any recyclable materials that may have been incorrectly disposed of in general waste.

Landfill Management

We work with modern, environmentally responsible landfill facilities that employ methane capture, leachate management, and other technologies to minimize environmental impact.

We offer advice to our clients on how to reduce general waste through better purchasing decisions, recycling practices, and waste segregation.
