How do we provide you with the best sanitary bin service available today?

Here’s how it works:

Our operator arrives on site, notifying the security or reception that they are ready to start

The operator goes to each area, enters each toilet cubicle housing one of our sanitary bins and proceeds as follows:

Step one: Removal of soiled waste

• The operator removes the top of the unit and takes out the plastic liner, complete with soiled contents. This liner is tied shut
• The operator then puts the used liner into a yellow tiger bag specific to the Duty of Care and Environmental Act 1990
• This second bag is placed into a third discretion or modesty bag for safe and discreet removal

Step two: Sterilisation of unit

Each sanitary bin is specific to its site so it is sterilised and cleansed in situ. The operator sanitises the bin inside and out, including the lid, using a germicidal and disinfectant spray.

Step three: Replacement of the liner

Once the sanitary bin has been sanitised, a new liner is placed inside and charged with a special dry germicide. This germicide provides powerful, fast-acting, protection against pathogens and the organisms which create redolent smells.

We use a wide spectrum biocide which is effective in vapour phase which also contains a pleasant perfume to freshen the atmosphere.

Step four: Charging of the sanitary bin

Germicide added, the lid is re-fitted and the sanitary bin is placed back in the cubicle.

Your sanitary bin service is now complete and the operative will endeavor to find a relevant member of your staff to sign the service sheet which details all aspects of the service, including your name and address, the service location and the type of waste removed.

This will often say EWC code 18 01 04 “Offensive Waste” which is the classification for feminine hygiene waste.

You will receive a copy of this note for safe keeping. We will keep a copy on your behalf for 7 years.

Should you have a visit by “Health & Safety” or the Environment Agency you can show your copy of a fully traceable route for your waste.
