Certified Waste Audits for Calgary Businesses
Meet City Bylaws. Cut Costs. Drive Sustainability.
If your business or property is looking to improve waste management practices, meet compliance requirements, and control costs, Waste Logic’s Certified Waste Audit Program is your next step forward. As Calgary enforces stricter waste diversion rules, including the ban on food and yard waste in landfills, your business needs a smarter way to manage waste.
Our waste audits are designed to help businesses in Calgary stay fully compliant with local waste bylaws, identify cost-saving opportunities, and support meaningful sustainability initiatives with real data and results, not just greenwashing.
Stay Compliant with Calgary’s Waste Bylaws
The City of Calgary has clear and enforceable waste regulations that all commercial and multi-residential properties must follow. Non-compliance can result in fines, violations, and reputational risk. Key regulations Waste Logic helps you comply with:
- Bylaw 20M2001:
This bylaw bans food and yard waste from landfills. If your business sends organics to landfill, you’re at risk of penalties. - Bylaw 4M2020:
Requires all businesses and multi-family buildings to separate recyclable and compostable materials, and maintain clear, up-to-date records of how waste is managed.
Waste Logic’s certified waste audits provide evidence-based documentation and expert guidance, so your operations remain compliant without extra administrative burden on your team.
Reduce Costs Through Smarter Waste Practices
A certified waste audit doesn’t just help with compliance. It also helps you spend less on managing your waste and recycling programs by identifying hidden inefficiencies in your current system.
Our waste audits help you:
- Right-size your bins and services so you’re only paying for what you actually need.
- Reduce pickup frequency by decreasing what ends up in your bins.
- Avoid contamination charges by improving sorting and eliminating misuse.
- Minimize landfill surcharges by diverting more materials to compost, recycling, or donation programs.
- Discover opportunities to reuse, donate, or replace materials, reducing your environmental impact and your hauler bills.
