Food Waste
Food waste can be challenge – the UK produces a lot of it.
If you can’t reduce your food waste any further, you can still contribute to a greener future by ensuring proper recovery. Our network of national and local partners will divert your food waste from landfill.
We utilise composting (where your food waste becomes soil nutrients) and anaerobic digestion (where microorganisms break down the food waste to produce biogas) which is a renewable source of energy. This can be used to generate electricity, organic fertiliser, slurry or animal feed.
One of our core values is BALANCE – our food waste services balance your unavoidable production of food waste with your desire and goal to be as environmentally friendly as possible.
- We provide appropriate containers
- We collect food waste according to an agreed schedule and the nature of the waste
- We ensure legal compliance
- We ensure your food waste is 100% recovered and not sent to landfill
- We aim to innovate and reduce carbon emissions by exploring options like biodiesel, electric and hydrogen refuse vehicles
- We can redistribute packed food to charitable partners to prevent food waste
You can also access the Customerzone portal for updates on your food waste service or to share any concerns. Remember, we’re here for you – whether it’s a call, email, or Customerzone message the Greenzone Customer Support Team are on hand to help you when needed.
