Frequently asked questions
What is the FREE GRIDCO Waste MOT?
It is a free, no-obligation, 20-minute site visit to review your business waste setup and identify practical opportunities to improve it.
What does the visit assess?
The review looks at current services and spend, bin utilisation, collection frequency, waste streams, contamination risk, compliance considerations, recycling opportunities, supplier complexity and potential savings.
Is my appointment confirmed when I submit the form?
No. The form is a visit request. Share your site details and preferred times, and GRIDCO will contact you to confirm an appointment. No slot is reserved until GRIDCO confirms it.
Will the Waste MOT certify compliance or guarantee savings?
No. It is a practical review, not a statutory compliance certificate or legal audit. Any savings identified are potential opportunities, not guaranteed outcomes.
Do I need to prepare anything or change my supplier?
You do not need to prepare the assessment areas in advance; GRIDCO covers them with you on site. The visit is no-obligation, so requesting a review does not commit you to changing suppliers or purchasing a service.
