Frequently Asked Questions
What does Waste Not Consulting do?
Waste Not Consulting helps organizations reduce waste, lower costs, and stay compliant through customized waste and recycling programs. We provide hands-on consulting, zero waste planning, and ongoing support to make sustainability practical and achievable.
Who do you work with?
We work with property managers, commercial businesses, corporations, and municipalities. Our clients range from multi-tenant properties to cities looking for long-term, scalable waste solutions.
What does “zero waste” actually mean?
Zero waste means designing systems that divert as much material as possible away from landfills through reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting. It’s a process - not an overnight switch - and we help clients set realistic, measurable goals toward that outcome.
How can waste consulting save us money?
Most organizations are paying for more waste service than they need. We right-size bins, optimize hauling schedules, reduce contamination, and improve diversion - often resulting in immediate and long-term cost savings.
Do you help with waste and recycling compliance?
Yes. We stay up to date on local and state regulations and help clients remain compliant with waste, recycling, and organics requirements - so you don’t have to track changing laws on your own.
What makes Waste Not Consulting different from other firms?
We are a high-touch, relationship-driven partner. As a local, woman-owned business, we provide faster response times, deeper involvement, and genuine care - treating our clients’ properties as an extension of our own business.
Do you offer on-site assessments?
Yes. On-site assessments are a key part of our process. We evaluate current waste systems, tenant behavior, and infrastructure to design solutions that work in real-world environments.
Can you help educate tenants and staff?
Absolutely. Education is critical to successful waste programs. We provide clear signage, training, and ongoing support to help tenants, employees, and stakeholders participate correctly and consistently.
Do you offer Zero Waste or sustainability certifications?
Yes. We support True Zero Waste and other sustainability initiatives by helping clients meet diversion goals, improve operations, and document progress toward certification requirements.
