Waste Audits are the study of a building, company or individual’s waste process. The audit looks at what is currently being diverted from landfills and what could be diverted. It aims to reduce waste and lower the costs of dealing with waste.
Certain buildings, projects and properties must follow Ontario Regulation 102/94 and complete a mandatory annual audit, which must be updated annually. These audits are carried into the following annual audit to compare results and progress.
