• Our attitude to recycling changed in the late

• Only started measuring the cost of waste in 2001 - £12,893
• Landfill was not expensive (certainly not its true cost)
• Lazy approach / busy enough thanks!
• Lack of education / awareness

• Steadily we have:
• Reduced the amount of waste
• Reduced the cost of waste
• Invested in the processes
• Got it engrained in the culture of the business

• Where to next:
• Still have problem areas – Polystyrene, Plastic Pots.
• Education - Greater sharing of solutions.
• Need to keep pushing to find better ways.
• Not easy when we are having to run a lean business.
• We still have to find a way of dealing with on site concessions.

• Some thoughts for the policy makers:
• Create an environment to encourage innovation.
• Don’t legislate to drive change. Just up the costs of inaction.
• Scrap metal dealers were not legislated into existence!
• Put the costs of the easy options up i.e Landfill.
• Increase the fines for fly tipping and the chances of getting caught.

• Some thoughts for the waste generators:
• You MUST create a cost centre for waste in your accounts.
• Tell everyone what waste costs.
• Take steady steps to reduce it. 80/20 rule applies here.
• Be prepared to invest.
• Involve the marketing department, you might as well shout about
it.

• So how do Stewarts feel about where we are:
• Still got problem areas. Polystyrene & Plastic Pots.
• In 2001 waste was costing us £12,893 p.a.
• Last year it was making us £3,000 p.a. So it’s paying.
• But it has cost us over £100,000 to get here.
• We can still do so much better.
• We need to put more pressure on those that trade on our sites.
