About Neales Waste Management

From humble beginnings back in 1991 with one skip vehicle to now providing hazardous waste collection services to power stations, hospitals and manufacturing sites across the whole of the North West, Neales Waste Management has always strived to put the customer first with the provision of bespoke services to cater for individual needs.

In an ever growing and changing industry, our service provision is constantly changing and improving to meet our customer requirements and always ensures that the service undertaken is in line with any changes to legislation. 

In 2008 we opened a transfer facility in Blackburn to hazardous wastes including WEEE waste and asbestos waste.  As we outgrew the facility, we moved our depot to our current Hazardous Waste Transfer Station based at Blackrod, Bolton which opened in 2014.

We are now able to receive a full range of hazardous wastes including:

  • WEEE waste
  • Fluorescent Tubes
  • Batteries
  • Gas cylinders and Aerosols
  • Oily rags and filters
  • Oil and coolant
  • Nominally empty packaging
  • Paints and adhesives

“We can’t thank Alan & RKMS enough for helping us get back on track and keep our ISO Accreditation.”

Consultancy Project

This was a collaborative effort between Neales Waste Management and RKMS to retain their ISO certification.

We offered expert support and guidance to get them back on track, enabling effective preparation for the external audit and ultimately achieving ISO certification.

This consisted of reviewing and updating procedures and documentation, conducting internal audits and assisting with the management review.

We had a team of consultants work simultaneously to ensure the project was delivered in a short timeframe.

The use of the issosmart™ system was also an integral part of this project to ensure timely delivery by utilising the built-in legal register and task manager functionality.

Outcomes

Neales Waste Management retained ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications, ensuring contract continuity. With issosmart™, system maintenance is streamlined. We regularly also assist with HSE compliance and also helped with their request to provide first aid training.

Consultancy Project

To assist the company to achieve certification to ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 to further support their existing ISO 9001 certification. The driving force behind certification was to generate a continuous improvement culture within the business and to support further growth of the business.

The existing management system along with environmental and H&S arrangements was reviewed and amended to incorporate all procedures and controls.

All legislative and regulatory requirements were identified and compliance assessed. An action plan was developed to ensure requirements of the standards were addressed. A Management Programme was generated with improvement objectives that had clear timescales and responsibilities.

All documentation and procedural instructions were generated and incorporated into an electronic management system that allows all staff to have access to the latest information at the touch of a button.

Outcomes

The company achieved certification to ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 via BM TRADA, a UKAS accredited Certification Body, at the first attempt. Since achieving certification the company have won a number of major new contracts resulting in employment of an additional 45 staff and an increase in turnover in excess of 25%. Ameon have retained the services of RKMS to assist with the maintenance of the management system.

“Dealing with RKMS has been excellent from day one. They have worked quickly to understand our business and integrated themselves into all of our operations.

During each audit the Certification Body has commented about the robustness and useability of the system developed by RKMS. This has been echoed by our staff who have fully bought into the system and the benefits it generates.

 We have also started our PAS 2060 journey with RKMS which is progressing well. RKMS carry out all internal audits at our depots and client sites. They provide clear and concise audit reports to the management team at WH Scott and assist in manging the close out of any OFI/NCR’s raised.
