Education Waste Management
Sustainable waste solutions for schools, colleges and universities across Scotland
Educational institutions play a vital role in shaping the future — and that includes sustainability. From primary schools and academies to large college campuses and universities, Hamilton Waste & Recycling Ltd offers waste management services that are compliant, cost-effective and environmentally conscious.
We work with education authorities, multi-academy trusts, facility managers and site teams to develop bespoke recycling and waste collection plans that support your environmental goals and work within your operational calendar.
Supporting a Cleaner, Greener Learning Environment
Educational premises generate a wide mix of waste — from classroom and canteen rubbish to confidential records and broken equipment. Our services are designed to support day-to-day operations while reducing environmental impact.
We offer:
- General waste and recycling collections
- Food waste disposal (ideal for school kitchens and canteens)
- Confidential waste destruction (safeguard pupil and staff records)
- Glass and can recycling
- Term-time and holiday collection scheduling
- Pupil engagement and sustainability support resources
We’ll help you boost recycling performance, meet regulatory requirements, and promote a sustainable culture throughout your school or campus.
Responsible Waste Management You Can Count On
All waste is processed at our licensed recycling facility, where we aim to divert over 97% of material from landfill. Our teams are vetted, professional, and understand the safeguarding and access requirements of education sites.
We also provide regular waste reporting and insights — useful for tracking performance against sustainability targets or showcasing your green credentials to inspectors and parents.
