Commercial waste collection types for gyms
Gyms produce a variety of waste types, each requiring proper handling and disposal. Below are the main categories of waste produced in gyms and how they are managed.
General waste
General waste includes non-recyclable items such as used paper towels, snack wrappers, and other mixed waste that cannot be recycled. This waste is collected in commercial waste bins and sent to a nearby waste to energy facility.
Commercial dry mixed recycling
Commercial dry mixed recycling includes clean and uncontaminated recyclable materials commonly found in gyms, such as plastic water bottles, paper and aluminium cans. These items can be collected together and sent for recycling.
Commercial cardboard waste
Gyms often generate commercial cardboard waste from deliveries of gym equipment, protein supplements, and other packaged products. Flattened boxes are collected separately and recycled into new cardboard products.
Sanitary waste
Sanitary waste obligations for businesses require gyms to separately collect and dispose of sanitary waste from public and staff bathrooms. Regular sanitary waste collection and washroom services help gyms comply with these rules.
Commercial food waste
Some gyms have cafes or juice bars that generate commercial food waste. This can include fruit peels, food scraps, protein shakes and expired produce. Food waste is collected separately and processed through composting or anaerobic digestion.
Commercial glass waste
For gyms with refreshment areas or smoothie bars, commercial glass waste such as bottles and jars may need to be collected separately for recycling. Glass is 100% recyclable and can be reused indefinitely.

Waste minimisation strategies for gyms
Reducing waste in your gym can save money on commercial waste collection costs, improve efficiency, and help maintain a cleaner environment for members. Here are practical strategies to minimise commercial waste in your gym:
Introduce refill stations
Encourage members to bring reusable water bottles by installing refill stations. This reduces the need for single-use plastic bottles or cups and reduces dry mixed recycling waste.
Provide recycling bins
Place clearly labelled recycling bins in key areas such as reception, workout zones, and staff rooms. Ensure separate bins are available for dry mixed recycling, cardboard, and general waste.
Switch to digital communication
Reduce paper waste by moving member communications online. Digital sign-in systems, email newsletters, and app notifications can replace printed materials.
Use reusable cleaning supplies
Replace disposable wipes with reusable cloths and washable mop heads. This reduces both general waste and sanitary waste.
Bulk buy consumables
Purchasing gym supplies like protein supplements, cleaning products, and toiletries in bulk can reduce commercial cardboard waste and packaging materials.
Educate staff and members
Training staff and providing clear signage for members can encourage better recycling habits and improved waste management.
What happens to unwanted gym equipment?
Unwanted gym equipment doesn’t have to end up in landfills. Here are some practical ways to manage it responsibly.
Recycle and dispose
You can take your old gym equipment to local commercial recycling centres, which will be sorted and sent for reuse or recycling. This is a practical option for dealing with electronic and electrical gym equipment, reducing environmental impact by diverting waste from landfills.
Donate to charity
If your equipment is still in good condition, consider donating it to charities, schools, or sports clubs. Some organisations send gym gear to communities in need, helping to reduce waste while supporting good causes.
Spares and parts
Broken gym equipment may still have valuable parts like cables, weights, or handles that can be reused for repairs or sold as spares.
Book a collection
For broken or unfixable equipment, booking a one-off waste collection is a simple solution. Many services will recycle what they can, reducing the environmental impact of disposal.
Use removal services
For businesses replacing large amounts of equipment, commercial removal services can collect, recycle, donate, or resell items, helping to keep waste out of landfill.
Selling online
Selling on platforms like eBay gives your equipment a second life and reduces unnecessary waste.
