Retailers Reveal #34: Ramesh Shingadia – Make waste pay

We used to have four large bins at the back of our shop where cardboard was collected.  We now have a cardboard compacting baler.  It’s far more environmentally friendly and while we used to pay £150 a week to have our cardboard collected, we’re now paid £20 per tonne when its collected.  It paid for itself in 15 weeks!

“I spent £2,500 on the cardboard baler and I now save £8,840 per year!”
