Clear signage and colour-coding are proving essential, especially in public and high-footfall areas. Facilities that have adopted these measures are already seeing a drop in cross-contamination, which translates directly into fewer rejected loads and lower landfill charges.
Laying The Groundwork For Long Term Success
For facilities still adjusting to Simpler Recycling, a comprehensive waste audit remains the critical first step. Understanding where, how and why waste is generated allows teams to design targeted, effective strategies. Rubbermaid’s waste stream analysis has shown that cross-contamination, particularly between food and dry recycling, is one of the biggest barriers to compliance and cost efficiency.
