Event Management Waste Management
Dependable, sustainable waste management for festivals, concerts, sporting events and public gatherings across Scotland
Running a successful event means planning for every detail — and waste management is one of the most important. From music festivals and community fairs to conferences and corporate events, Hamilton Waste & Recycling Ltd provides a complete, flexible waste solution designed to keep your event clean, safe, and environmentally responsible.
We work with event organisers, local authorities, production companies and venue operators to ensure waste is handled efficiently before, during and after the event — so you can focus on delivering a great experience for your guests.
Tailored Waste Services for Every Type of Event
No two events are the same — that’s why our event waste services are fully bespoke. We’ll work with your operations or site team to plan the right container types, collection schedules, and recycling systems to suit your venue, audience size and duration.
Our event services include:
- Pre-event waste planning and site surveys
- On-site waste management and staffing support
- General waste and dry mixed recycling (DMR)
- Glass, cardboard, and food waste collections
- Hazardous and sanitary waste disposal
- Post-event site clearance and clean-up
- Real-time waste reporting and recycling data
Whether it’s a one-day function or a multi-day festival, we provide the people, vehicles and infrastructure needed to deliver a smooth and compliant waste operation from start to finish.
Clean, Green and Compliant Events
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our advanced recycling facility in East Lothian aims to divert over 97% of waste from landfill, ensuring as much material as possible is reused or recycled.
We can also help you design greener waste systems — including on-site recycling stations, composting options, and clear signage for public engagement. Our reporting tools give you accurate recycling and diversion statistics, perfect for sponsorship reporting or meeting sustainability goals.
