Revenue volatility in the Non-Hazardous Collection industry is low, given many local authority contracts provide steady revenue streams over multiple years. Waste companies collect non-hazardous waste materials like mixed recoverable materials from households on behalf of local authorities and commercial and construction clients. This means demand is largely contingent on activity in industrial and construction markets, which have been subdued in recent years due to economic headwinds like rising interest rates and subdued economic growth. Non-hazardous waste collection revenue is expected to fall at a compound annual rate of 4.6% over the five years through 2024 to €88.5 billion, including revenue decline of 2.4% in 2024.
