Case Studies

Porthcawl 10k logo

In July 2025, we proudly supported the Brecon Carreg Porthcawl 10K Run, a major one-day running event held along the scenic South Wales coast. Organised by Run 4 Wales, the event welcomed over 6,200 participants and thousands of spectators, making it one of Wales' most popular summer sporting events.

As part of our commitment to sustainable event waste management, we provided a tailored waste solution to support the smooth operation and environmental goals of the race. Our service included:

5 x 1100L General Waste wheelie bins

5 x 1100L Paper & Card wheelie bins

10 x 1100L Metal & Can wheelie bins

4 x 240L Food Waste wheelie bins

Additional services provided included a full, post event waste management report.

Through efficient planning and on-site waste segregation, we helped the event organisers divert over 93% of waste from landfill, including food waste, recyclable metals, plastics, and cardboard.

In total, our waste management services supported the event in maintaining a clean, safe, and environmentally responsible environment for runners, volunteers, and spectators alike.

We look forward to supporting the event again in 2026, continuing our partnership with Run 4 Wales to help deliver another clean, compliant, and environmentally responsible race day.

Once the site is assessed, we’ll work with you to create a tailored Event Waste Management Plan, including:

Delivery and collection times

Daily emptying schedules for multi-day events
