Year Long Contract with London Based Client Comes to Successful Conclusion

As provider of a variety of waste management solutions the team at Acumen can often be found working throughout the UK (and beyond) on a huge array of projects. Whilst jobs are often time sensitive and require a quick turnaround, a large potion of the work we undertake sees us contracted to deliver ongoing or longer-term solutions. Once such project recently came to a successful conclusion at the end of summer 2022 and is a perfect example of how Acumen is consistently retained by clients based on the breadth and level of services we supply.

 

The Project

This particular job saw Acumen contracted for a total of 52 weeks on a large re-cladding project in the heart of South London. Our client were tasked with delivering a full principal contractor package which included management of a fully occupied residential block as well as ground floor retail facilities.

Skip

Acumen were brought in to provide a wide range of services including the provision of 8yrd and 12yrd general waste skips as well as our Acu-bin service. This required up to three skip movements per week with Acumen ensuring that all relevant accreditation and compliance documentation was relevant, accurate and up to date.

Throughout the year Acumen ensured that all skip movement was undertaken without issue and to the highest of standards. With the site being situated in a tight central area of London city centre it was essential that our drivers meticulously adhered with the often challenging road layout whilst remaining efficient and compliant at all times.

In terms of the project’s main focus, Acumen was tasked with recycling of waste and compliance for:

  • Glass panels
  • Insulation board
  • Wood waste
  • General waste
  • Aerosols
  • Mastics
  • 98% diversion from Landfill rate

Through the consistent delivery of quality, efficient, safe and compliant services Acumen look set to be contracted across a further range of projects for this client and it’s a relationship we look forward to seeing blossom.

This project was a great example of how Acumen can deliver a consistently top-notch service across a long period of time, regardless of location whilst ensuing that all necessary compliance requirements are stuck to 100% of the time. A safe, clean site and happy client are what we wanted and it’s definitely what the team achieved.
