Benefits of a Waste Audit
1. Waste audits can help you determine the effectiveness of your operations
Stop guessing. Find out what is really going on. A waste audit can tell you what is working or not working with your current waste and recycling management program. It can uncover system breakdowns, expose wasteful problems or confirm success. This enables you to make necessary adjustments to improve and maximize your operational efficiency.
2. Waste audits help you save money
Waste audits can unlock missing revenue streams and potential savings. By reducing what is going into your trash, you may also be able to reduce your waste hauling fees.
3. Waste audits help you measure success
A waste audit can help set a baseline and create annual benchmarks so you can set targets and gauge the progress and effectiveness of your waste and recycling programs.
4. Waste audits help you get more accurate data
Waste audits can help verify data provided by your waste and recycling service providers, which is important for operations and billing. Incorrect data can lead to unnecessary fees. Accurate data is also key to conducting a waste removal RFP when it is time to renegotiate contracts.
5. Waste audits help you meet certification standards
Waste audits are part of the requirements for various certification standards such as BOMA Best, LEED, GreenKey or GRESB. If you need this data a waste audit can provide the data you require.
6. Waste audits are required for certain regulatory compliance and reporting purposes
Ensure compliance with Ontario MOE regulations (O.Reg 102/94 and 103/94) with annual waste audits and work reduction plans.
