Treatment and disposal

Treatment and disposal services for local authorities

We provide innovative solutions to recycle and treat, and dispose of waste.

Energy-from-waste (EfW)

We run three energy-from-waste facilities in the UK.

Transfer station operations

We manage transfer stations, where residual waste and recyclables are bulked up before being taken for further treatment or final disposal.

Materials recycling facilities (MRF)

We have 40 materials recycling facilities throughout the country where recyclables are sorted into material types.

Recycling centre management

We operate 120 household waste and recycling centres throughout the UK, many of which we have redeveloped and where we are achieving our best ever recycling rates.

Landfill

Approximately three per cent of renewable power in the UK generated from SITA UK landfill sites.

We manage the safe disposal of residual waste in our 24 active landfill sites across the country. Our landfill sites are highly engineered, using our industry-leading expertise.

Composting

SITA UK has developed a network of composting facilities to process green garden waste and kitchen waste. We are now one of the largest producers of refuse derived compost in the UK.
