Pre-Booking: All exhibitors and contractors must pre-book waste management services prior to the event. This allows us to coordinate resources and ensure sufficient capacity for waste collection and disposal.
Available Services: Our venue offers waste collection, material recycling, and disposal options tailored to your needs. Please see our waste services on the webshop for your event and confirm your requirements by ordering by the indicated deadline.
Separate Waste Streams: To maximise recycling and minimise waste sent for incineration, all exhibitors and contractors are required to order containers for their waste materials according to the appropriate waste stream (e.g., wood, Dry mixed recycling, general waste). It is a legal requirement to separate WEEE (electric/electronic) good and hazardous materials so please ensure relevant services are ordered for these items.
Provision of Containers: Containers will be provided per waste stream accordingly.
Reduce Waste: We encourage all exhibitors and contractors to limit the use of single-use materials, plastics, and unnecessary packaging. Choose reusable stand designs and materials where possible or opting for eco-friendly alternatives that can be recycled post-event.
Regular Collection: Our waste management team will collect your waste containers once they are full, or you have finished with them. Should you require additional collections, please contact our exhibitor services team to place a further order.
Excess Waste Charges: Waste exceeding the agreed-upon collection quantity may incur additional fees.
Contaminated Waste: Any collections that are found to be excessively contaminated will incur additional fees.
Donations can play a vital role in finding a home for surplus materials and food as well as supporting the local community rather than becoming waste. If you wish to donate, please contact the Sustainability Team at sustainability@excel.london in advance to allow sufficient time for necessary arrangements and coordination with our charity partners.
Exhibitors are requested to utilise clear bags for general waste, orange bags for dry mixed recyclables and a food waste caddy / bag for any food waste. Please note that black bin bags are not permitted at any time. Exhibitors should place any full bags in the aisle at the end of each open day so that they can be collected overnight. Please note that any items left in the aisles during open days will be considered litter and disposed of.
