Waste Management Audit

At Eco Resources, we conduct waste management audits, a key step in fostering sustainable waste management practices in Western Australia.

These audits are essential for enhancing your business’s efficiency, reducing costs, and ensuring your company aligns with the region’s objectives for a circular economy.

Waste Auditing Process

Our process follows these strategic steps:

1. Setting up a Team

• Establish a waste auditor team or designate a responsible person for the waste audit.
• Involve every department within your organisation, ensuring comprehensive engagement and connectivity throughout the business.

2. Scheduling the Audit

• Choose a strategic time, preferably a week or a few days during normal business operations.
• Opt for a less busy period to minimise disruptions and obtain an accurate representation of typical waste volumes.

3. Conducting the Audit

• Characterise and quantify waste streams, assessing contamination rates for an in-depth understanding.
• Identify opportunities for waste diversion, and source reduction, and assess the effectiveness of existing waste management systems.
• Provide a baseline for reporting and benchmarking against industry standards.

4. Improvements Analysis

• Uncover ways to enhance the efficiency of your waste management systems.
• Unlock wasted revenue, save costs, and streamline processes based on audit insights.

5. Waste Management Plan

• Develop a customised waste management plan post-audit, incorporating findings and stakeholder input.
• Include measures for waste avoidance, minimisation, and recycling to drive sustainable practices within your organisation.

It is our recommendation to conduct waste audits bi-annually for optimal value.
