â&#128;¢ Provide monthly accurate University specific data on waste weights, uplifts, categories, transport miles, treatment type and associated CO2 equivalent emissions.

â&#128;¢ Support the University to train staff in 'best practice' waste management principles, to reduce waste and improve segregation.

â&#128;¢ Seek to continually improve the service delivered and develop sustainable waste minimisation, reuse, and recycling opportunities wherever possible.

â&#128;¢ Lot 3 - Chemically Contaminated Laboratory Waste from Research and Teaching
