Construction waste management and disposal solutions

This page presents end-to-end waste solutions for construction, renovation, and demolition projects that make it possible to reduce waste volume by up to 90% and increase debris recycling.

How to recycle building and renovation debris

Construction and renovation projects generate vast amounts of waste, typically collected in multiple skips or open containers that fill up quickly.

Mil-tek delivers robust, site-ready solutions that reduce waste volume and container pick-ups, helping your team stay focused on the job instead of handling waste.

Overflowing construction waste: Hidden costs and hazards

A building site often has several containers for different waste streams, with little real sorting. Overflowing skips are common as well, and debris often ends up blowing across the site.

Furthermore, multiple containers require frequent pick-ups and emptying, sending trucks back and forth and driving up costs. This can also create safety hazards for workers.

📌 Construction waste that isn’t managed efficiently stalls schedules, inflates project costs, and eats up valuable site space – quietly eroding your profit margin.

Minimize construction waste where it is generated

By compacting cardboard, plastic, EPS, and mineral wool off-cuts at the point of generation, you reduce waste volume by up to 90 %.

This leads to:

  • Fewer skip swaps
  • Lower haulage fees
  • Less truck traffic
  • No windblown waste
  • Easier on-site storage
  • More efficient truck loading
  • Tidier, safer work areas
  • Crews focused on the job, not waste handling

Compact EPS / Polystyrene offcuts

EPS is common in construction, but it fills containers fast due to its bulky, lightweight form.

On projects with high EPS waste, a polystyrene compactor on-site can reduce volume by up to 40:1, cutting skip collections and freeing up space.
