ALTERNATIVE DAILY LANDFILL COVERS

ALTERNATIVE DAILY LANDFILL COVERS

Why use Alternative Daily Landfill Cover

The European Landfill Directive requires every Landfill Operator to cover the working face on a daily basis.

The Directive stipulates that when using inert material a minimum of 150mm (6 inch) should be deployed over the daily waste inputs.

Landfill Operators using our Alternative Daily Landfill Covers enjoy the following benefits;

  • Save valuable void space increasing revenue with increased waste inputs
  • Fast and efficient cover deployment, reducing the timely and expensive need to deploy tonnes of soils, clays and other aggregates by mechanical equipment
  • Improved compaction rates
  • Non taxable form of cover
  • Guaranteed source of cover
  • Contains wind blown litter
  • Deters birds, vermin and scavengers
  • Improved visual, uniformed appearance
  • Aides in containment of odour

How we implement our Alternative Daily Landfill Covers onto site

  • Every client is provided a free of charge Cover Management Plan which is a framework of how the Cover System should be operated in order to ensure ongoing commercial, operational and environmental compliance
  • Free of charge on site training provided to every client to train management and on site personnel in all aspects of the Cover System including deployment and monitoring
