Waste Types

We specialise in the collection, treatment and disposal of a wide range of waste streams, both co-mingled and single stream. These include General Waste, Dry Mixed Recyclables, Cardboard, Plastic, Food Waste, Glass, and Construction and Demolition Waste.

Each waste type is processed using methods designed to extract the maximum amount of recyclable materials, reduce landfill dependency, and optimise energy recovery. Our tailored approach ensures efficient, sustainable waste management for every stream.

What we collect

For small to medium enterprises

As an SME ourselves, we are familiar with the constraints faced by small to medium businesses. We tailor solutions to fit within these constraints, while providing a cost effective service for most waste types. Whether you are a small or large business, we offer attractive credit terms and market leading data about your waste arisings on a regular basis.

For large businesses

Large businesses are required to become more aware of the carbon cost of their scope 3 activities, particularly the waste produced from their operations. RiverRidge is one of Northern Ireland’s only independent operators capable of providing valid and auditable tonnage and carbon data to large organisations. We are a one stop shop for large, multi-site operations who require reliable and cost effective solutions to their waste removal needs.

For local authorities

At RiverRidge we specialise in the treatment of residual municipal solid waste. We own our treatment facilities, allowing us to manage the waste treatment and disposal for thousands of Northern Ireland’s households every day. We provide market leading solutions, prioritising recycling and utilising local infrastructure ahead of the export of waste. We are the only company in Northern Ireland able to provide this level of service.
