SALFORD WASTE MANAGEMENT objective when recycling is to maximize the re-use of non-renewable resources, where it is economically and commercially viable to extract materials from the waste stream and there is a meaningful demand for the secondary materials.
Re-usable materials with a greater market value than the cost of collecting, sorting and processing will be recycled.
Our aim, as a company, is to reduce the costs of waste disposal by recycling and reusing waste materials. This in turn will provide healthier environment. From the waste materials received each day, SALFORD WASTE MANAGEMENT aim to recycle 95% of waste brought in to our transfer station.
