In 2002 Transwaste Recycling and Aggregates Ltd started trading from Hessle Dock. In May 2003 the company was granted a licence by the Environment Agency to start separating, treating, recycling and storing waste. In February 2008 the company moved to its present site in Gibson Lane, Melton. The site was a purpose built waste transfer station and over 300,000 tonnes of waste is now handled through the facility, with only approximately 5% being landfilled. A second depot at Foster Street in Hull quickly followed as the company needed somewhere for its regular Hull based customers to use. Many waste streams are sorted and recycled at Melton including bricks and concrete, green waste, wood, plasterboard, plastic, cardboard and metal. Any residue is turned into a Solid Recovered Fuel for heating cement kilns or a Refuse Derived Fuel for the use in producing electricity in waste to energy plants.
