Material Recycling Solutions

If your business produces high volumes of cardboard, paper, EPS, PP straps or aluminium cans, you may be paying to dispose of material that has real commodity value. At Environmental Waste Controls, we buy recyclable material directly from producers, turning what you currently treat as waste into a revenue line or a reduced contract cost.

Call 0333 305 2207 to see how our recycling solutions can help your business.

Sustainable solutions from EWC

Selling material to EWC is a simple three-stage process. The goal is to make it as straightforward as possible for producers who’ve never sold their recyclable waste before. Here’s how it works:

  • Enquiry – Tell us what material you produce, roughly how much per week or month, and how it’s currently stored. We’ll let you know if there’s a deal to be done and what we’d need to see to confirm pricing.
  • Site survey & sampling – Our team can visit your site to check material quality, volumes, and segregation. We’ll recommend any improvements that would unlock better pricing. There’s no obligation to go with us, and there’s no hard sell. We’re there to help!
  • Deal & collection – We’ll agree on a price and collection schedule. Within our own collection area, material is collected by EWC’s own fleet. For sites further afield, we’ll arrange and manage the collection. Loads are weighed on the weighbridge, and payment is processed against the agreed pricing structure.

Sell to a licensed, permitted operator

Producers selling recyclable material need confidence that it’s going to a properly permitted operator, both for their own Duty of Care compliance and because regulatory non-compliance can come back on the original waste producer. At EWC, we operate under full UK environmental permits, with documentation supplied as standard.

Environment Agency Permit

EWC’s recycling solutions services operate under an Environment Agency permit (CBDU158060).

Waste Carrier Licence

EWC is a registered upper-tier waste carrier.

Weighbridge tickets & transfer notes

Every collection comes with weighbridge tickets and proper Waste Transfer Notes – exactly what you need for your Duty of Care records.

Triple ISO accreditation

ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental) and ISO 45001 (Health & Safety). Procurement-grade accreditation, available on our Compliance page.
