Pub, Bar and Club Waste Management Services
Running a busy pub, bar, or nightclub means managing a constant flow of customers and with that comes a significant amount of waste. From glass bottles and food waste to cardboard packaging and general rubbish, it’s essential to have a reliable, compliant, and cost-effective waste management partner who understands the unique needs of the hospitality sector.
With decades of experience, the Mick George Group specialise in providing tailored commercial waste collection and recycling services for pubs, bars, and clubs.

The UK hospitality industry produces over 2.9 million tonnes of waste each year, with 920,000 tonnes coming from food alone. Yet, around 75% of pub waste can be recycled with the right systems in place.
By partnering with Mick George, you can:
- Reduce your landfill costs
- Improve your recycling rate
- Lower your carbon footprint
- Demonstrate sustainability to customers and regulators
Our expert waste consultants can also provide site audits, staff training, and monthly recycling reports to help your business continually improve.

Pub Waste Types We Manage
Every night, UK pubs and bars generate tonnes of recyclable material. Understanding and segregating your waste is key to reducing costs and environmental impact.
- Glass Recycling: All glass waste is sorted, cleaned, and processed into new products, reducing the need for raw materials.
- Food Waste: from expired ingredients, plate leftovers, and preparation offcuts can be recycled through anaerobic digestion, producing renewable energy and biofertilisers – a greener alternative to landfill disposal.
- Cardboard Waste: Packaging from drinks deliveries and food supplies can quickly build up. Our recycling process transforms used cardboard into new paper products, helping your business meet sustainability goals.
- Plastic Waste: From drinks bottles to packaging and cups, plastic recycling prevents tonnes of material from entering landfills.
- Sanitary & Washroom Waste: Our discreet and compliant sanitary waste disposal service ensures your facilities meet hygiene standards and legal obligations.
- Chemical & Hazardous Waste: Cleaning chemicals, oils, and other hazardous substances are handled safely and in accordance with waste regulations.
