Reuse

Bywaters prioritises reuse over recycling to ensure zero waste enters landfill. We partner with organisations to repurpose furniture, IT equipment, and office supplies, reducing emissions and disposal costs. Our smart sorting ensures items find new homes with UK businesses or charities, promoting sustainability and cost savings while maintaining compliance.

Recycle

We offer comprehensive recycling for dry mixed waste, glass, cardboard, and hazardous materials. Our facilities process thousands of tonnes annually, diverting waste from landfill and converting it into reusable resources. Specialised streams for coffee grounds, food waste, and WEEE ensure maximum recovery and regulatory compliance for businesses.

Recover

Non-recyclable waste is sent to energy-from-waste facilities, generating power for London and the UK. This process diverts clinical and residual waste from landfill, converting it into electricity while adhering to strict environmental standards. We ensure zero waste is directly disposed of, aligning with net-zero goals.

Reporting

BRAD, our analytics dashboard, provides real-time waste management insights. Clients track recycling rates, CO2 emissions, and compliance documents through customisable reports. The tool enhances transparency, enabling data-driven decisions to improve sustainability performance and meet corporate responsibility targets efficiently.

Engineering

Our in-house engineering team offers 24/7 technical support and rapid response times for equipment maintenance. With over 100 years of collective experience, they ensure seamless operation of waste management systems, providing installation, training, and emergency repairs to maintain uninterrupted service for clients.

Operation Aytac

Dec 04, 2021 Report

Diana ultimately insulted my intelligence by repeating the lines I understand sir but you did not get charged for yesterday collection which is an open book of events that anyone can clearly see. You obviously are not going to charge us for a collection that was not made, instead you are going to charge us an EXCESS charge for the excess weight which would not have been piled up if ByWaters collected on the agreed days. From where we stand this approach your taking is most certainly unacceptable and unethical. You fail to collect the waste on the agreed dates, which naturally has an overload

The recycling collection carried out by you for the commercial unit on the postcode I live in (N1 1TY) starts every Wednesday around ~7.15 AM and lasts up to an *hour*, at times. While this is your job and I appreciate you might be doing it all professionally, the collection is VERY loud with trolleys bringing recycling items back and forth for at least half an hour, sometimes an hour. As you might also appreciate, this makes it impossible for anyone whose flat is facing your huge truck, to sleep or to go back to sleep. If it was just 5-10 minutes, that would of course be fine. I have contacted

Dreadful company, unfair contract terms - they claim their 12 month contract has a 6 month notice period, only able to be served at the end of the contract, so in effect an 18 month contract. They regularly overcharge for "overweight" collections, and their customer service (Zaheer) is laughably bad. Save yourself the hassle and go with someone else.

Brilliant! My last provider was RTS... I was lucky if they even turned up. Bywaters are reliable and never leave rubbish behind. The best commercial bin provider I've had.

A well presented, interesting and informative website. The information was easy to read, digest and understand. The facts and figures were particularly interesting and useful as I can pass onto others when in discussion about environmental issues. A great website experience!
