Food Waste Disposers

The modern, convenient way of handling your food waste

What? Food waste disposers are small electrical devises that process food waste to prevent it entering in your household bin and ending up in landfill. There are a clean, quiet and hassle free way of disposing food such as meat and even food that has been cooked and not eaten, or food that is simply past its use by date.

Where? They fit neatly under your kitchen sink and are connected to the drainage system and household electricity supply. They have on/off switches and are safe to use even with wet hands.

How? The devices use spinning blades to grind the food up in to tiny particles and the water from the tap washes it away down the drainage system. Studies have shown that food waste disposers have a negligible effect on water and energy consumption.

Why? It is the modern convenient way of dealing with your food waste and great if you cannot compost at home. They are are suitable for all households and provide a cost effective way of dealing with your food waste.

Cost? Food waste disposers start from around £50 and are available in various sizes to suit the number of people in the household. They are cheap to run because they are only used for very short periods of time each day.

Benefits: Here in Herefordshire and Worcestershire the waste products are used to create biogas via a process known as anaerobic digestion. This is then able to be used to create electricity and returned to the National Grid.
