Dellner & Willshee’s Waste & Recycling – A Successful Partnership in Waste Management

Dellner, an industry leader in the design, manufacture and service of Train Connection Systems, provides innovative solutions to train builders and rail operators worldwide. With a focus on quality, safety, and sustainability, Dellner is committed to reducing its environmental impact across its operations. By working with Willshee’s Waste & Recycling, Dellner has maintained high waste management standards and met its sustainability goals through increased recycling.

As Dellner expanded its operations, managing its waste efficiently became increasingly complex. With different types of waste, including general waste, plastics and hazardous materials, Dellner needed a reliable partner that could provide an integrated waste management solution to reduce waste, lower costs and increase recycling rates. The company also sought a solution that would go beyond simple waste collection, incorporating regular account management and continuous improvements to ensure ongoing optimisation of its waste processes.

Willshee’s Waste & Recycling, known for its commitment to sustainable waste management practices, became Dellner’s trusted partner. The collaboration focused on creating a waste management strategy that would reduce general waste, increase recycling and optimise the disposal of hazardous materials. Willshee’s dedicated account management team now works closely with Dellner to audit its general waste streams. This involves detailed analysis and regular reviews to identify areas for improvement. By identifying and separating materials at the source, Dellner was able to significantly reduce contamination in its waste streams, making recycling efforts more effective.

To improve the recycling process for cardboard, Willshee’s trialled a baler for Dellner. The organisation was already separating its cardboard, and this was being recycled. However, this was being collected in a rear end loader (REL). Having the baler in place, Dellner was able to increase rebates for the cardboard being recycled, improving the financial efficiency of its waste management practices. Additionally, using the baler on site meant having fewer vehicle movements, further reducing costs and environmental impact.

As part of its ongoing partnership with Dellner, Willshee’s expanded its service offering to include the management of hazardous waste. This allowed Dellner to have a single, comprehensive waste management solution that covers all waste types, simplifying the process and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.

Kevin Doherty, QHSE Manager at Dellner UK said “Willshee’s Waste & Recycling has been an invaluable partner in our waste management journey. Their proactive approach to account management and regular waste audits and reviews, combined with solutions like the baler have helped us reduce waste, lower costs and increase recycling. Willshee’s doesn’t just manage our waste – they add real value through ongoing collaboration and improvement. We highly recommend their services to any business looking for a comprehensive and efficient waste management solution.”

Willshee’s commitment to ongoing support ensures that Dellner’s waste management system is always optimised, providing a total waste management solution that aligns with sustainability goals.

For businesses looking to improve their waste management systems, Willshee’s Waste & Recycling is a trusted partner capable of delivering sustainable, cost-effective solutions.
