How to effectively manage waste in a hotel?

MAY 13, 2022

Hotel management is not only about serving guests and cleaning the rooms. The success consists of, among others efficient team management, developing the offer or skilful budget allocation in marketing activities. What about waste management? It is also worth making some improvements here.

Small decisions have a significant impact on the efficiency of the hotel business and the quality of its services. One element that is not mentioned very often is waste management.

Advantages of waste management

An average hotel guest can produce up to a kilogram of waste a day. This means that large hotels in only one day can generate as many kilograms of rubbish as the average Polish inhabitant in a year.*

This is why efficient waste management can generate multi-level benefits and significant savings for hotels: both financial and related to other resources.

In addition to lower bills for garbage collection, the management team also gains additional space necessary to store waste, which directly translates into less frequent transport and further savings.

Employees also gain additional time. Instead of focusing on the work related to waste disposal, the hotel staff can take care of what is most important - guest service.

Modern waste management and pro-ecological approach also allows building the hotel's image as a place that is environmentally friendly. Read more in this articel:

Ways to manage waste in a hotel

There are many ways to effectively manage waste in your hotel:

Plastic in a pile

News paper in a pile

PET bottles in a pile

1. Investment in foil and paper waste balers

Balers in hotels are devices that allow you to reduce costs related to the production and disposal of waste.

Small baler - such as model B3 and B4 - despite its small size, it will be great in a hotel. The press will compress the waste into small bales, which take up several times less space , are easy to transport and recycle. & nbsp; Compact balers help reduce waste to small, handy and light bales that can be transported and stored without the use of specialized equipment. Bales from the smallest B3 and B4 balers can be handled by workers.

How heavy is the bale from the B3 and B4 balers? The bale weight is from 30 to 60 kg (cardboard) and from 40 to 70 kg (foil). Due to their configuration, small balers can produce bales weighing up to 25-30 kg.

Compact balers are small in size. As a result, they take up little space and can be successfully installed in places with limited space. Do you have a small room?

B3 and B4 devices will prove themselves as balers for waste paper, cardboard and foil waste, which are most often found in hotels.

2. Press for PET bottles and plastic waste

Waste in the form of PET bottles, plastic containers and cans is one of the problems that also occurs in hotels. Dedicated balers for plastic waste will be perfect for this situation.

Due to its dimensions, plastic waste should be pressed in balers with a suitably large filling opening and high pressing force. It is worth checking the model PC24 HD and balers from the X series, e.g. model X30.

Additionally, it is worth remembering to unscrew or perforate the lids before ironing plastic bottles or containers. If you do not do this, the air inside may hamper the ironing process.
