In today’s commercial world its increasingly important to be able to demonstrate that your company takes its environmental responsibilities seriously. Yorwaste can help you achieve this with its waste management solutions.
Under the waste management hierarchy, the priority is to maximise recycling, then recovery, and finally to consider disposal into landfill. At Yorwaste we can help you achieve those goals.
To maximise your recycling, we can provide specialised services for Glass, Food, and Dry Mixed Recycling. We can also offer a collection and composting service if your company generates large volumes of green waste. If you have large volumes of other specific wastes, we would be happy to explore other specialised recycling options with you. These services can both improve your company recycling rate and reduce your waste management costs when compared to recovery or disposal.
For the waste you produce that isn’t easily recycled we can offer Waste Recovery via Energy from Waste (EfW) facilities where the waste is burned to generate electricity that then helps power the UK Economy. Whilst less green than recycling, this is considerably more environmentally friendly than landfill disposal.
There are some waste types which can’t be recycled or recovered (e.g. Asbestos). For those difficult waste streams, we can still provide a landfill disposal option.
Compared to our competitors, we are a truly local Company, focused on supporting other local companies. Our award-winning customer services are based in York and North Yorkshire and are operated by people who live in and know the local area. They are there to provide you with a seamless and pain-free waste management service that allows you to focus on your core operations.

Stokesley’s household waste was managed by Hambleton District Council. The area the Council operated within includes Bedale, Thirsk, Easingwold, Great Ayton and Northallerton, and serves an estimated population of nearly 90,000.
Stokesley’s domestic waste is now managed by North Yorkshire Council.
Since 2007, the district has been one of the top performers in North Yorkshire in terms of household waste being sent for recycling, reuse or composting. Hambleton has kept this rate above national averages since that time and has constantly strived to improve this by introducing new systems to make the process easier for residents. This performance peaked in 2015/16 when 54.1% of all household waste was sent for reuse, 12 percent higher than the national average.
The Stokesley community is active when it comes to conserving local rural habitats, reducing wastage and preventing further climate change. The Stokesley River Leven Group is one example of how the community is making a concerted effort to conserve the natural habitats close to the town.
The Group is comprised of members of the Parish Council, Stokesley Agricultural Society and the National Farmers Union, to name a few. A Stokesley and Villages Climate Action Group has also been set up to raise awareness of climate change and put in place meaningful plans to mitigate its ongoing effects in the local area.
