MANY ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE HISTORIC CITIES IN EUROPE ALREADY HAVE APPROPRIATE WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN PLACE.

UPPER STRAND FEATURES THE FIRST EXAMPLE IN THE UK, PROVIDING DISCREET, STRATEGICALLY PLACED DISPOSAL POINTS THAT ALLOW DOMESTIC WASTE TO BE CONCEALED UNDERGROUND WHILE AWAITING REGULAR COLLECTION BY THE LATEST AUTOMATED VEHICLES. FACILITIES FOR RECYCLING AND TEMPORARY STORAGE OF BULKY ITEMS AWAITING COLLECTION WILL ALSO BE PROVIDED WITHIN THE DEVELOPMENT.

Underground storage is aesthetically far more pleasing and incidentally less of a health hazard than street level bins.

The disposal points are similar in size and height to standard litter bins and are therefore much easier to use.

For apartment buildings and housing complexes they offer a space saving, safe, quick and easy solution to the disposal of household waste and recyclables.

Like all the innovative features in place at upper strand, this waste management system provides a forward thinking solution for the regeneration of a historically and environmentally sensitive site, combining large capacity, future cost savings and enhanced appearance.
