Probably one of the worst sights in the world is seeing piles of rubbish strewn across a green landscape. It's enough to make anyone angry. And yet fly-tipping and illegal waste disposal activities are everywhere. 

This unfortunately is what we are all facing as a result of our rubbish disposal habits and the way we are generating waste at an increasingly rapid rate. 

This makes waste management such an important job for all of those involved in trying to keep rubbish collection routines regular and disposal done the right way. 

Once the cycle of rubbish collection is interrupted it has many consequences on our health and the environment. In these circumstances, a registered rubbish collection provider like Junk Removal Wirral plays an important role in ensuring continuity. 

Here we take time to consider why the rubbish collection routines are so important and why to keep it clean, keep recycling going, regular rubbish removal must be assured. 

Why is Regular Rubbish Removal So Important?

Once rubbish starts piling up wherever it may be, it becomes a sign for others to think that they can just add their junk to the pile too. It’s a chain reaction and soon there will be an eyesore of note. There are several serious consequences:

• Lack of regular rubbish removal is bad for the cleanliness of the community. Business suffers, and homeowners don’t know what to do with their rubbish. The area doesn’t look clean and tidy. 
• The area becomes unsafe as piles of rubbish lie around obstructing pavements and blocking drains in the process. 
• Rubbish attracts vermin and other pests. Bacteria and mould develop. Flies start laying eggs and worms start hatching. Worse is the smell that occurs. All of these are bad for our health and present a danger to it. 
• Uncollected rubbish has consequences for the environment. We already are aware of the signs of climate change. Rotting waste gives off methane, which pollutes the atmosphere. It also permeates the soil and water. 

To avoid all of these problems, most cities and towns have regulations in place that guide waste management practitioners. These advise on the need for regular rubbish collection and responsible disposal, including recycling. They are designed to keep routines in place and are policed through the issuing of fines and legal consequences. 

The Effect of Rubbish on the Environment.

Uncollected rubbish can have detrimental effects on many ecosystems and is bad for human health.

• The rubbish that clogs up rivers, flows into the ocean and pollutes forest habitats will destroy the fragile balance of an ecosystem. It means that animal food chains get disrupted, and species disappear from that environment, affecting its biodiversity. 
• Animals and birds can eat rubbish unknowingly resulting in digestive complications. Not only that but they also get physically harmed when they get entangled in the rubbish debris floating in the ocean or on the ground. 
• The chemicals contained in rubbish leak out into the soil and water, harming the marine animals and also polluting the water that we drink. Many waterborne diseases are well known for the misery they bring to the lives of people who live in areas where waste management is inadequate. 
• Rotting waste produces gases, which in turn pollute our air. This is bad for breathing and creates health problems for those living near uncollected waste. Other diseases start becoming evident as uncollected waste provides a breeding ground for many types of insects capable of spreading disease. 

Ultimately our uncollected rubbish contributes to the degradation of the environment we live in, the only world that we have. 

The answer lies in having an operational rubbish collection system in place that is regular and consistent to prevent any of the above from happening. Recycling plays a very important part in determining what happens next when this waste has been collected. 

Importance of Recycling 

Why are we always reminding ourselves about how important recycling is? The answer lies in the fact that recycling is the best way to keep rubbish that has been collected from being dumped into landfill. It is simply a necessity!

• The earth’s resources are preserved through recycling, as recycled materials replace the need to use virgin materials. This particularly applies to construction waste, plastic, glass, and cardboard. 
• It also means that less energy is used than when fewer new raw materials are produced. This in turn helps mitigate climate change as less greenhouse gas is generated. 
• Less pressure is felt on the landfills which then have a longer lifespan. 
• Recycling helps reduce the pressure on the environment, reducing pollution and lowering the incidence of hazardous substances going into the water, soil, and air. 
• Clean-up and recycling educational campaigns help create awareness about responsible waste habits and do a lot to promote the concept of “clean up and recycle”.
• Recycling is a whole new industry where people are creating jobs and making money. The concept of the circular economy has developed where waste products are being kept out of the waste disposal routines and are being reused repeatedly.

In summary, regular waste removal and recycling are crucial for keeping a healthy environment, conserving resources, and reducing the threat of climate change facing us.
