Detailed On-Site Waste Assessment
The detailed on-site assessment follows the same general outline as the quick assessment but will usually take waste from a defined period, usually at least a week or longer to allow for fluctuations in business activity. In addition waste weights are accurately recorded and bags are opened up and individual waste fractions are also accurately recorded.
