Horizons Environment



Leading resource management

Formerly Scottish Water Waste Services, we’re an innovative organics recycling business that can improve your environmental credentials and cut your waste disposal costs.

With increasing pressure to reduce waste going to landfill and with landfill tax set to increase year on year, we offer alternative and competitively priced solutions for all your organic waste needs. 

From the recycling of food and garden waste to the handling of liquids, sludges and septic waste, we help you protect the environment, reduce your carbon emissions and divert your waste going to landfill.

More recently we’ve been generating ‘green’ energy from the recycling of food waste at our state-of-the-art anaerobic digestion facility, near Cumbernauld. This energy will help to power our site and provide a renewable form of energy for local homes and businesses.

How we can help you manage your waste:


Recycling your food waste
We take your food waste no matter what the size, nature or location of your business, providing you with a reliable and cost effective waste solution that also improves your environmental credentials.

By transforming your food waste into ‘green’ energy we help divert waste going to landfill and reduce carbon emissions.  Click here to find out more. 


Composting your garden waste

We take in garden waste and recycle it within our state-of-the-art fully enclosed composting tunnels. This is transformed into environmentally friendly pod which is a peat-free soil improver certificated to the high standard set by BSI PAS100.

Disposing of your sludges and liquid waste

As well as disposing of solid waste, we also handle a range of commercial and industrial liquids and sludges.  Working with Scottish Water, we arrange collection and disposal at sites across the whole of Scotland.


Uplifting your septic waste
We offer uplift and disposal of waste from commercial and industrial septic tanks as well as effluent plants across Scotland. We can also arrange disposal at licensed Scottish Water sites of septic waste uplifted by tankering companies.


Supporting your events
We know how important it is that your event runs smoothly.  We provide tankering services and access to a waste disposal point so that you can rest assured your waste needs are in the hands of experts.

To date we’ve provided waste disposal services for a number of high profile events including ‘T in the Park’ and the British Open Golf Championships.
