The Non-Hazardous Waste Collection industry has adapted to surging demand for recycling from commercial, industrial and residential clients. Waste companies collect non-hazardous solid waste materials, including collection of mixed recoverable materials from households on behalf of local authorities, commercial and construction clients. Local authority contracts provide steady revenue streams for over seven years and are preferred by larger companies. Rising public concern over the environment has intensified pressure on many downstream clients to limit the amount of waste sent to landfill sites and increase their recycling levels, directly boosting demand for waste collectors. Revenue is expected to inch upwards at a compound annual rate of 1.5% to £9.9 billion over the five years through 2022-23, this includes forecast revenue growth of 0.5% in the current year, when the average profit margin will be 9%. This industry covers the collection of non-hazardous solid waste from households and businesses. It includes the collection of municipal, commercial, industrial and construction waste and recyclable material by public and private operators.
