Compliant waste management for Wakefield's logistics, food manufacturing, and energy sectors on the M62 corridor.
One specialist partner for WEEE, batteries, lamps, solar panels and hazardous waste, with in-house treatment and full Duty of Care paperwork.
Wakefield sits at the intersection of the M62 and M1, making it one of Yorkshire's largest logistics and distribution hubs. Major distribution centres across Normanton, Castleford, and Calder Park generate high volumes of industrial battery waste from forklift fleets, materials handling equipment, and automated warehouse systems.
WEEE from warehouse automation, conveyor systems, scanning equipment, and IT infrastructure requires specialist treatment through our licensed AATF facility. The logistics sector also generates UPS batteries and emergency lighting waste from large distribution sheds.
Wakefield's food manufacturing sector, including major bakeries and food processing operations, produces hazardous waste from refrigeration systems, cleaning chemicals, and production equipment. Our ADR-trained drivers collect these materials with full consignment notes and compliance documentation.
The surrounding agricultural area includes growing solar installations and battery energy storage systems on commercial and farm buildings. Commercial lighting recycling from retail parks and business premises adds further specialist streams. For compliance guidance, see our duty of care guide.
We also serve businesses across West Yorkshire, Leeds, South Yorkshire, and Huddersfield.
