As we strive towards our vision of being a highly esteemed leader in the Waste & Recycling sector, we are dedicated to innovatively broadening our service offerings.

Our Green Credentials

How we Maximise Landfill Diversion

At Waste King, our objective is clear: to separate 100% of the materials we collect. This dedicated effort allows us to channel these materials to specialised recycling facilities, significantly reducing landfill waste and enhancing environmental sustainability.

Our commitment to sustainability extends to our robust Reuse Network. We proudly collaborate with charitable organisations like the British Heart Foundation and the Salvation Army, donating high-quality furniture and electrical items. Furthering our reuse initiatives, we host book and clothing recycling banks at our Hemel Hempstead office and warehouse. This ensures maximum reuse of the items we collect. For more insights, we invite you to explore our Charitable Donation page.

Waste King’s dedication to minimising landfill waste has been recognised with various awards, affirming our commitment to recycling and environmental stewardship.

  • Efficient Material Separation: Our process meticulously sorts recyclable materials such as wood, metal, and WEEE, ensuring they are appropriately handled.
  • Strong Reuse and Recycling Partnerships: Our network includes leading reuse and recycling organisations, enhancing our recycling capabilities.

Quick and easy to book. No long delays. Driver phoned before arriving and then arrived on time. Team were polite and courteous. Cleared the rubbish in 15 minutes. Great service. Far more convenient than having a skip blocking the drive for a few days.
