Coronavirus – COVID 19 – Our Position

Both globally and as a country, we are facing the most challenging and unprecedented times as the Coronavirus-Covid19 pandemic takes hold affecting all our lives in what we would have considered unimaginable only weeks ago.

With that being said, at Grist Environmental we want to reassure all customers that as Government classified Key Workers in a Key Sector, our business will to continue to operate.

Our service has always operated with strict hygiene and safety control measures in place and in the light of this most recent challenge we have introduced additional measures to ensure the very highest of standards. As a responsible employer we have significant numbers of our staff working from home and front-line staff operating under strict social distancing procedures. 

Professional waste management is a vital component of Disease Control and Public Health, two things which are crucial when dealing with this virus.  We would therefore encourage all our customers to continue to undertake a professional and forward-thinking approach to your waste collection and management service. 

If you need to adjust your schedules, then please contact us by email sales@gristenvironmental.com  to suspend services and have no charges added to your account from the dates specified in your email. We will leave your bins on site during the service suspension to allow for a quick and easy reinstatement once things get back to normal and when this happens, please email sales@gristenvironmental.com  to confirm which services to restart and when you want that to happen.

You will only be invoiced to the last collection confirmed in your email.

Whilst the Wiltshire Household Recycling Centres have re-opened from Monday 18th May 2020, (with the exception of Stanton HWRC near Chippenham), they are operating with significant restrictions based on a one out – one in policy and home postcodes are being used to determine which days you will be allowed on each site. Therefore, it is still a good time to think about discounted skip hire as the only way of removing bulky household waste, so call us today for a guaranteed lowest cost offer for Skips of all sizes or Giant Wheelie bin deliveries with no face to face contact required as card payment can be made over the phone with all documents emailed or left on site.

Thank you for your continued custom, and remember to stay at home and keep yourself and your family safe as we are all in this together.
