Frequently asked questions
-
What does "National Business Solutions" mean and who is it for?
National Business Solutions is a Canada-wide, multi-site waste management program for organizations that need one consistent waste & recycling strategy across regions. It’s built for retail and restaurant chains, property portfolios, and senior living/healthcare networks that want vendor consolidation, standardized service levels, and centralized reporting.
-
Can you manage multiple waste streams beyond garbage and recycling?
Yes. National programs can include organics and food waste recycling, grease trap service, used cooking oil collection, equipment (dumpsters, compactors, balers), and regulated waste such as hazardous waste disposal or biomedical waste management (where applicable). Everything is managed under one governance and reporting model.
-
How does Waste Solutions Canada manage multiple vendors and locations under a single program?
We act as your single point of contact and manage the program end-to-end:
- Audit vendor contracts and invoices to confirm pricing and service levels
- Negotiate rates and standardize service where it makes sense
- Right-size containers and pickup schedules by site type and volume
- Consolidate billing and reporting so finance and operations have one view
-
How do you handle differences in regulations across provinces and municipalities?
We design national programs with regional compliance built in. Each site follows local requirements (municipal/provincial rules, regulated stream handling) while staying aligned to your national standards through vendor oversight and documentation.
-
What reporting do national clients receive?
You receive centralized dashboards and reporting on:
- Costs and spend trends (by site, region, vendor, and stream)
- Service levels and performance (issues, missed pickups, optimization opportunities)
- Diversion and recycling performance (including organics where applicable)
- ESG-ready metrics for sustainability reporting (where applicable)
-
How do we get started with a national assessment?
First, we conduct a national footprint assessment of all your sites, current services, volumes, vendor contracts and cost structure. Then we develop a tailored national strategy: vendor rationalization, service standardization, technology-enabled tracking, rollout plan and implementation timeline. Once approved, we execute the program and monitor performance across all locations.
