How does the Waste Exchange
work?
STEP ONE
Company A produces a waste
that they wish to dispose of (or find an alternative to their current
disposal route) They contact us to tell us the details of the waste and
we put it on the site. It
will show as waste available on this web site - we
do not advertise the company details - all such details are
kept confidential.
STEP TWO
Company B finds the details
of the waste by searching through the database and contacts us to express
an interest either by email or telephone. We then contact Company A to
notify them of the interest and give them the details of Company B so
that they can contact them directly. The two parties can then negotiate
an exchange of the waste.
Alternatively
STEP
ONE
Company X needs a supply of
material for their manufacturing process. They fill in the form on this
site to request materials. We will add the request to our database and
make it available on this web site. Again, no
company details are advertised.
STEP TWO
Company Y finds the request
for materials by searching through the database. If they have a material
that matches the requirements they contact us, either by email or telephone
(01274 718420). We then contact Company X to notify them of the source
and give them details of Company Y so that they can contact them directly.
The two parties can then negotiate an exchange of the waste.
How much does Pennine Waste
Exchange cost?
Pennine Waste Exchange is a FREE service.
How do I search the database?
There are two lists: Materials available
is a list of materials that companies wish to dispose of; Materials
wanted is a list of materials that companies and other organisations
wish to receive. You search both lists in the same way and from the same
place - the home/search page.
Method 1
First enter a single word that
describes the material you are searching for (for example - polyester
or pallet)
If you are unsure of the exact
material you are looking for, you can search for part words, for example
searching for poly will find polyethelene, polypropylene, polystyrene,
etc
Click the Wanted
or Available option. If you want to
narrow your search to a particular town,
select one from the drop down list on the right. If not, just leave it
as "Select Item".
Then click on Search.
Your results will be displayed in a few moments.
If there is an item you want
to get more details on, click on the Waste Code.
Details on that item will then be displayed.
If you are interested in an
exchange, contact us via email or
phone, quoting the Waste Code
and we'll ask the company or organisation concerned to contact
you.
Method
2
Select a category (eg. Plastics)
and choose the Wanted or Available
option. If you want to narrow your search to a particular town,
select one from the drop down list on the right. If not, just leave it
as "Select Item".
Then click on Search.
Your results will be displayed in a few moments.
If there is an item you want
to get more details on, click on the Waste Code.
Details on that item will then be displayed.
If you are interested in an
exchange, contact us via email or
phone, quoting the Waste Code and
we'll ask the company or organisation concerned to contact you.
