trashonomy: An Honest Approach to Event Waste management

At Trashonomy, we are a family, and together we supply more than just waste management and cleaning services for events. We are your zero waste experts who assist you in ensuring that an event organized by you is environmentally sustainable by identifying your specific needs. Our team will help you reach a zero-waste target within no time.

Apart from this, we are your one-stop-shop for waste management and cleaning at events, so you can take care of everything else while we take care of your waste. From offering the services of professional cleaning staff, skips, compactor truck, and specialist industrial cleaning, we have your event covered.

At Trashonomy, our driving principle is – Sustainable events made easy, and our team abides by it. Till date, we have provided services to many sectors that help event organizers, venues and others go “green” especially when it comes to their operations.

One of our most significant ways of doing this is by providing cleaning and waste management services – with focus on maximizing the rates of recycling and organics diversion.

We have noticed the way the recycling waste stream at large-scale events and festivals becomes contaminated with food, drink, and other trash due to the inability of the organizers in managing their waste correctly. It is not a hidden fact that most attendees at these events are more interested in having a great experience than in bothering about whether the waste generated has been dealt with keeping in mind the correct procedure. And since most recycling facilities cannot accept contaminated waste even if it is re, however, so when presented with a dumpster full of contaminated recyclable waste, they are forced to turn it away which is why it ends up in the landfills where it stays.

While putting out enough recycling bins and then throwing it into a dedicated recycling dumpster is a good start, it doesn’t necessarily close the loop at the back-end because the problem remains. The issue can be only be solved by making sure that the dumpster of mixed event recycling is going to be recycled.

At Trashonomy, we aim to challenge this status quo by introducing an innovative approach to separating and sorting the recycling and organics at events. With a combination of front-of-house initiatives (e.g., well-labeled recycling/organics bins, waste take-back stations, collection strategies, etc.) and back-of-house initiatives (e.g., sorting, automation, compaction, recycling, composting), our services take care of all your waste-related woes in an especially Trashonomy-like manner.

Whether you are simply looking to get the trash off-site and off your mind or you are keen on opting for an ambitious recycling initiative, no task is too big or small. At Trashonomy, we have got you covered so you can focus on everything else.

Our honest client-first approach to recycling and waste diversion allows us to put together a full-service cleaning and waste management strategy for large festivals and events. We can manage any or all aspects of the process, depending on the unique needs on your event.

This includes strategies that we implement pre-event, during the event, and post-event, so that your event is not only successful but also sustainable.
