The Costs of Recycling

 There is a collection cost, which will be charged by your waste collection company.  This cost will cover the cost of collecting your waste and the "gate fee" for processing it at the Knowaste plant.  

The Knowaste gate fee will be competitive to landfill and will help local authorities avoid any penalties that may occur from not meeting the landfill diversion targets.

If you are the parent of a baby in nappies, speak to your local council about nappy recycling in your area.  In a recent survey of parents across the UK, 93% of parents polled reported that they do feel a degree of guilt when throwing nappies out in the rubbish.  Nine out of ten parents stated that they would segregate nappies for collection.  And, 83% said that they would support a fortnightly collection if they knew the nappies would not be taken to landfill.  If you feel the same way, speak with your local council. 

If you are a daycare centre, hospital, nursing home or washroom management company, contact us.  We would like to work with you.

The true costs of not recycling nappies, adult incontinence and feminine hygiene products will be borne by future generations.  We can all be environmentally responsible now - with innovative technologies, Knowaste drives compelling new strategies that are vital to our planet.
