Trash Talk

Students, Students, Students....after leaving college and taking the first steps to adulthood, your next port of call is University and Student Accommodation.

Living with mates, partying the night away, becoming a responsible adult, you may feel like you have finally made it. Yes, Uni is great and living with your friends is exciting, but, there is a mess that comes with it, that is not much spoken of in Student Digs across the UK. The mess of household waste!

Picture this. 

You're settling in for a cosy evening at home when you hear it – the unmistakable scurry of tiny feet in your walls. Your heart sinks as you realise you've got unwanted guests – rats.

Rats are a bit like having a teenager sat upstairs playing video games, you can't see them, but you can hear them. Now let's be honest, the rats won't make as much mess as a teenager, or cause as much continuous stress, but they can be a real pain! 

Dealing with a rat infestation can be unsettling and downright frustrating, but fear not! 

The 9-5 grind, the concrete jungle...the modern office workplace. 

With helicopter thinking, smile and dial, beautifully intelligent & all the other office lingo flying around, office recycling talk is going to be the last thing on people's lips.

However, just like a parent having the talk with their children....we need to talk office recycling.  

Smelly bins are part and parcel of dealing with waste management.

All the nappies, food waste and other odour fuelled items that we chuck away, bubbling at the bottom of the bins, just waiting for you to lift the lid again, so that you can get wafted with that musky smell on a hot summers day. 

But, do bins have to be smelly all the time? Is there anyway that homeowners, business owners & renters can keep on top of this? 

All businesses and households across the UK have a duty of care to manage waste safely and without harming the environment. 

The waste duty of care basically ensures that everyone involved in the waste management chain, which includes homeowners, business owners & waste companies, take safe and appropriate measures to prevent environmental harm and effectively handle all waste produced. 

But, why are these notes so crucial?

Throughout the UK, there are 1000s of hotels, some big, some boutique.

For every hotel room, posh reception, fine dining and pool & spa, there is a hidden underground world that not many of us get to see. 

We are talking waste management in the hotel industry.
