How We Turn Your Business Waste Into Money?
So, how does the waste your business generates end up filling your pockets instead of landfills? At Parry & Evans, we handle the entire process with full traceability — from scheduled collections at your site to sorting and processing at our state-of-the-art facilities. Here’s what happens behind the scenes for each recyclable material.
Paper Recycling
Almost every business in England and Wales generates Paper Waste for Recycling, and at Parry & Evans, we help ensure it doesn’t go to waste..
We accept, collect, and recycle a wide range of paper grades, from mixed office paper to high-quality printed materials. Whether your waste arrives loose or baled, it undergoes strict quality control at our facility.
Using a combination of advanced optical sorting systems and hands-on inspections by our experienced team, we sort the paper into industry-grade categories suitable for reprocessing by UK and international paper mills.
Once sorted, the material is compacted into high-density bales — ready for recycling and, depending on the grade and volume, potentially eligible for a rebate.
Cardboard Recycling
Common across the manufacturing sector and beyond, waste cardboard packaging can be more than just a byproduct — it can be a source of revenue through rebates.
At Parry & Evans, we accept all grades of recyclable cardboard in both loose and baled forms. When it arrives at our facilities, the material is thoroughly inspected and graded using a combination of automated systems and manual quality control. Our advanced machinery even separates residual paper from cardboard cores, ensuring maximum material recovery and zero waste to landfill.
Once sorted, the Cardboard Recycling Process continues as it’s baled according to its quality grade and transported to paper mills for reprocessing into high-quality recycled products. Businesses that produce clean, dry, and well-sorted cardboard may be eligible for a rebate, turning your packaging waste into profit.
Plastic Recycling
Plastic is one of the most common, yet complex, waste streams generated by UK businesses.
At Parry & Evans, we help simplify Plastic Waste Management by working with you to separate plastics at source, making recycling easier, more efficient, and potentially more profitable.
Our specialist recycling facility has the capability to accept, collect and recycle a wide range of plastics, including Film, LDPE, PET, PP, and even Polystyrene (EPS).
Whether we pick up your plastic waste loose or in bales, we use a combination of manual checks and on-site shredding and sorting systems to separate materials by polymer type.
Once separated, all recyclable plastics are rebaled for recovery or remanufacturing — and if your plastics are of a suitable volume and quality, your business could benefit from a rebate.
For any mixed plastics or contaminated grades that can’t be processed or recycled on-site, we forward them to our trusted specialist partners to ensure it’s handled properly and responsibly, ensuring that they avoid going to landfill.
Glass Recycling
Glass is one of the few materials that can be recycled endlessly without losing quality, making it a high-value stream in any sustainable business waste strategy.
At Parry & Evans, we supply on-site containers and bins to help your team Collect and Recycle Glass efficiently. Once collected, we bulk the waste at our recycling plant to reduce transport emissions and prepare it for efficient onward processing.
At our trusted reprocessing partner’s facilities, the glass is re-melted and re-manufactured into new products like bottles, jars, and packaging, supporting a circular economy and reducing the need to produce raw materials.
If your business produces clean, separated glass waste in volume, our glass waste management offers more potential rebates, rewarding your sustainability actions with a financial return.
Metal Recycling
Everyone knows the value that comes with Recycling Waste Metal. Its properties of being highly durable and endlessly recyclable make it the only waste material that most businesses even consider recycling to generate revenue.
At Parry & Evans, we help you to manage, store and sort a wide range of commercial metal waste (whilst always ensuring full compliance with UK recycling legislation). Within our specialist facility, metals are extracted from co-mingled waste streams using a combination of magnetic belts, manual sorting, and strict quality control checks.
Steel cans are magnetically separated and baled on-site, while aluminium cans are isolated using vibrating table technology and sent to specialist metal merchants for reprocessing.
If your business produces clean, well-sorted metal waste, particularly steel or aluminium, it could be eligible for a rebate, adding further value to your recycling efforts.
Wood Recycling
In the UK, businesses generate millions of tonnes worth of waste wood, much of which still ends up in landfill. At Parry & Evans, we’re committed to changing that by helping business effectively Recycle Waste Wood.
We accept and collect a wide variety of commercial wood waste, including reusable pallets, broken pallets, offcuts, crates, loose timber, and more. Once on-site, the wood is carefully inspected for quality and sorted to determine the best next step — whether that’s reuse, recycling into woodchip and composite products, or energy recovery.
By diverting wood from landfills, we help your business reduce its environmental impact and meet sustainability targets. For businesses that produce clean, high-quality wood waste, recycling your waste wood can also offer cost savings and potential rebates depending on volume and condition.
