Insurance Solutions for Waste Management Companies

The management of waste is a complex, sometimes hazardous business. Under constant pressure from consumers and government alike, the industry needs to keep costs low and confidence high.

The waste management industry has many hazards on site. Accidents are sadly frequent, particularly crush injuries. Fires are also quite common. The compacted waste can spontaneously ignite and the resulting fire is often fuelled by oil and grease that is inevitably around the site. One company had a £400,000 fire claim because of just such an incident.

Risks that can’t be avoided, controlled or eliminated will be expertly transferred to reliable insurance companies. We will always be on hand to help keep your business’s insurance constantly up to date. If anything does happen DW Risk Services will work with you to make the claim process as easy and quick as possible; ensuring your business stays operational.
