Every year, thousands of tonnes of waste end up in landfills, contributing to pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and loss of valuable resources. By choosing an eco-friendly waste collection service, you can:
Reduce landfill waste – Diverting waste from landfills helps reduce methane emissions and soil contamination.
Lower carbon footprint – Recycling and repurposing materials require less energy than producing new ones from raw materials.
Protect natural resources—Responsible disposal ensures that materials like metal, wood, and plastic can be reused instead of wasted.
Keep Leatherhead clean – A well-managed waste system helps maintain clean streets, parks, and public spaces.
Our Eco-Friendly Practices
Prioritising Recycling
At M.A & Sons, we sort and process waste carefully, ensuring recyclable materials like plastic, glass, paper, and scrap metal are sent to appropriate recycling facilities instead of landfills. We also work with local recycling centres to ensure responsible waste disposal.
Responsible Scrap Metal Collection
Instead of discarding unwanted scrap metal, we collect and recycle materials like copper, aluminium, and steel. This helps reduce the need for mining and preserve natural resources. Recycling metals also reduces pollution and energy consumption in metal production.
Sustainable House Clearance Services
During house clearances, we ensure that furniture, appliances, and household goods are recycled, repurposed, or donated whenever possible. This reduces waste while benefiting the local community.
Green Garden Clearance Solutions
Our garden clearance services focus on environmentally responsible disposal of organic waste, including grass cuttings, branches, and soil. We encourage composting and ensure that green waste is recycled into mulch or biofuel whenever possible.
Energy-Efficient Waste Collection Vehicles
We continually work towards reducing emissions from our waste collection vehicles by optimising routes and investing in fuel-efficient practices to lower our carbon footprint.
Supporting Local Sustainability Efforts
At M.A & Sons, we believe in working with the community to promote sustainable waste management. We support Leatherhead’s local environmental initiatives and encourage our customers to adopt greener waste disposal habits.
