1. Initial Segregation –
Utilizing a central bin station, all employees have an ability to conduct their own initial pre-sort to ensure maximum recovery. This area is typically where a central fax / photocopy / printer room and or kitchen / lunchroom are located.
Utilizing large and coloured signage throughout the system allows quick recognition and appropriate segregation to occur both on bins themselves but also above the bins with posters as depicted in the photograph below.

2. Transfer for Collection –
Once an under desk Mixed Recycling Box is full the Contracted Cleaner will collect the box, empty the box into a clear plastic bag (or directly into a larger bin) and deposit the bag into the larger receptacle for location to a central area (loading dock) for collection by GEWM.
3. Post Collection –

The Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) is an automated recycling plant with the ability to open bags prior to the waste segregation beginning.
