It’s also important to recognise that any solution should offer a degree of flexibility, something I’ll talk about more in relation to COVID-19. The trading patterns for the hospitality sector generally show seasonable peaks and dips and your service should reflect these needs. It’s not all about bins and collections either: some situations may benefit from implementation of reverse logistics services for example.
