New Dock Hall: Events Venue

Throughout the year New Dock Hall at the Royal Armories in Leeds City Centre caters for Conferences, Banqueting, Exhibitions and Weddings. Throughout December the site holds Christmas events for over 11,000 party goers.

Forge Recycling collect General Waste, Mixed Recycling and Glass Bottles from the site regularly during the year, but during December the service gets increased dramatically, to meet New Dock Hall's needs. This is an example of the kind of bespoke service we offer. This year we have delivered additional General Waste and Mixed Recycling bins, and increased the frequency of collections.

The New Dock Hall site also produces a large volume of glass bottles; Forge Recycling collect and recycle it all. They have 18 x 240 litre bins on site already, and we have delivered an additional 6 x 440 litre bins for the festive period, which we hold in stock especially for them for this time of year.  

This means that throughout December we will collect and recycle approximately 18 tonnes of glass from this one site alone!

When asked about his experience, the Facilities Manager of New Dock Hall, Steve Kersh, said:

"Royal Armouries International were looking for a Waste Recycling Company that could meet our specific needs, and Forge Recycling were willing to listen and respond with a "can do" mentality. We required our waste to be collected only when requested as our business at New Dock is unique and diverse depending on a number of factors such as Dinners, Conferencing, Weddings Exhibitions and more. This impacts on the amounts of waste produced and days for collection. By working together Forge Recycling have provided a bespoke service, extra bins on request and provided large glass bins just for us and to meet the large turnover during the festive season. These are returned to the depot and stored for the following year.

I would recommend Forge Recycling without hesitation to any business based on our experience."
