The cost of waste is often under-estimated, adding up to 10 times the original cost of removal. Most of this material could be reused, recycled or have the energy recovered from it instead. Sign up for one of our free* workshops today to find out how.

Training workshop and launch: CL:AIRE Definition of Waste V 2
Wednesday 30th March 2011
University of London, Docklands Campus, University Way, London E16 2RD
This free half-day event will provide training for those involved in the development industry who want a greater understanding of the Definition of Waste: Code of Practice (CoP) and how it might be applied to future projects. The CoP provides a streamlined process which enables the legitimate re-use of excavated materials on site or their movement between sites. Case studies will be presented showing significant cost savings and other benefits. An overview of the extended scope of CoP version 2 will also be given and there will be an opportunity for questions and answer sessions with all the presenters.
