As a business we have worked with Agecko for over 6 years, now finding their services very reliable, efficient and professional. On a personal note I have work with Caroline and team for the last 2 years and found them friendly, very helpful and supportive. In this time, they have helped me out of a hole a couple of times with their contacts and knowledge of the business. Challenge them and they will come through. I have no hesitation in recommending Caroline and Agecko services team.
We have used Agecko for some time now and when the contract came up for renewal we didn’t hesitate to continue with their services. Over the years, they have assisted us in reducing waste onsite and improving recycling streams. This has been done by providing us with valuable knowledge, data and equipment to assist us, while also proving us some returns. The services offered by Caroline and the Team have been fantastic and nothing has ever been too much to help us.
We would have no issues in recommending them to anyone else looking for a complete recycling solution.
My team and I have had the pleasure in working with Agecko for the last three years. Throughout this time the Agecko team have been professional, supportive, understanding and reactive to our many changing needs at the Cargill ANH site at Dalton. Conny and the team have provided a robust and dynamic service where no job is too small and every request has been successfully completed on time and within budget. We look forward to a continued working partnership going forward, as we work closely with the Agecko team to make sure our waste streams are compliant.
We were looking for a company that could look after our waste management in order to help reduce our waste and our costings, whilst managing the new regulations that are coming in and any future changes. They have successfully done this and we are looking at further ways to help reduce the waste and become more sustainable.

A manufacturing waste management plan is a tailored strategy that outlines how your business handles, reduces and disposes of waste from production processes. It ensures compliance with UK waste regulations while focusing on cost savings, recycling opportunities and sustainability goals.
A waste management plan helps manufacturing businesses stay compliant by documenting processes for collection, treatment, recycling and disposal. It ensures the correct paperwork, such as waste transfer notes, is maintained and that operations meet environmental standards. This reduces legal risks while supporting ISO and sustainability commitments.
A manufacturing waste management plan can cover a wide range of waste streams, including industrial waste, metals, plastics, wood, cardboard, paper, hazardous materials and raw material offcuts. It can also address lean manufacturing waste such as defects, overproduction and excess inventory, ensuring all waste is handled responsibly.
Manufacturers can reduce waste and improve efficiency by carrying out regular waste audits, improving on-site segregation and monitoring waste data. Identifying inefficiencies such as overproduction, material offcuts and poorly managed waste streams helps lower disposal costs and increase recycling rates.
A structured manufacturing waste management plan ensures waste is handled compliantly, supports sustainability targets and creates ongoing opportunities to streamline operations.
