What wheelie bin collection means
Wheelie bin collection is a scheduled trade waste service where a business is supplied with lockable containers that are emptied on a fixed round, typically weekly or fortnightly, under a written duty-of-care agreement.
The right bin size matters more than the price per lift. Businesses routinely over-buy: a café that fills a 660L bin twice a week is often better on a 1100L collected weekly, and cardboard-heavy retailers save more by splitting a dry mixed recycling bin off the general stream than by shopping around on rate.
We survey the waste before quoting so the bin, the frequency and the streams actually match what the site produces. Where the mix changes seasonally — coastal Kent hospitality, for example — we flex the frequency between summer and winter.

Bin storage, highways and food hygiene
Bins must be stored on private land where practicable; leaving them permanently on the footway can attract an obstruction notice from the district council. Food businesses must keep food waste containers separate and lidded to comply with food hygiene requirements, and the separate collection of dry recyclable streams is a growing statutory expectation for businesses across England.
