Food Court Waste Setup

A simple plan for food courts: organics, cardboard, commingled, and general waste, with clear signage and timed pickups.

1 Dec 2025Michael Chen4 min readUpdated weekly

Food Court Waste Setup

Food courts generate high food waste, cardboard, and commingled from cups and bottles. Use this setup to keep floors clear and costs predictable.

Streams and bins

  • Organics: 240L liners, 3-6x weekly depending on volume.
  • Cardboard: 660L/1100L rear-lift or front-lift; flatten everything.
  • Commingled: 240L/360L inside for staff decanting; 660L outside.
  • General waste: sized after organics and cardboard are set; avoid over-servicing.

Signage and layout

  • Trio stations in seating areas with photo-based signs of actual menu items.
  • Keep commingled away from sinks to avoid liquid contamination.
  • Back-of-house stations labeled for staff; lids down to prevent pests.

Scheduling

  • Extra lifts after peak trade days; lighter schedule on off-days.
  • Align organics with cleaning shifts to control odour.
  • Track bin fullness for two weeks; keep bins 60-80% full at pickup.

Need a food court plan? Contact with tenant mix, photos, and current pickups. We will size streams and set a timetable around your trade peaks.
