Agricultural Waste Collection

Waste collection for farms and rural businesses — packaging, general waste and honest advice on hazardous agricultural streams.

Farms and rural businesses produce commercial waste like any other workplace: packaging, workshop rubbish, office paper and canteen waste. They also produce streams that are not standard wheelie-bin waste (silage wrap, empty pesticide containers, veterinary sharps, tyres). Stratos Environmental compares licensed carriers for the commercial collections we can place, and we will be explicit when a stream needs a farm-plastics scheme or hazardous contractor instead of a 1100L general bin.

What we typically compare

Empty pesticide containers, waste oil, asbestos and fallen stock are specialist routes. Mixing them into general waste is illegal. We would rather lose a line on a quote than pretend a standard carrier can take them.

Access

Rural collections depend on whether a vehicle can reach the yard. We take postcode, access and volume into account so you are not quoted a city-centre sack service that cannot physically arrive.

Frequently asked questions

Is farm plastic the same as commercial recycling?

Not usually. Silage wrap and similar farm plastics often go through dedicated agricultural plastics schemes, not a standard dry mixed recycling bin.

Can you collect from a rural postcode?

Often yes, through our partner network, depending on access. We'll confirm coverage for your exact location rather than assuming city-centre rounds.

Do farm shops need food waste collection?

If you produce food waste from a shop or cafe, Simpler Recycling rules apply like any other food business.
