Local business fined for burning waste

10th Nov 2017

Our local press has reported that a Gloucester based business has been heavily fined after being caught burning its waste inside a skip.

We occasionally come across businesses who still burn their waste, cardboard being a common waste type. This illegal practice is not the easiest to cover up, you only have to read about similiar incidents in press articles to see proof of this - in the case we read abaout they were caught red handed.

Don't take the risk of burning your waste, you can easily get heavy fine and the smoke produced is no good for the environment.

QCR can help. Recycle your cardboard with a cardboard baler and not only will you be performing a perfectly legal form of waste management but your green credentials will rise significantly.

Oh and you save money, space and time on your waste as well...

Remember; a free QCR survey costs you nothing; free trials cost you nothing and you don’t have to buy equipment – QCR will rent it to you and support you 100% throughout.
