With a history of responsibly managing a number of waste treatment and dis-
posal facilities both in South Africa and outside of the country, EnviroServ re-
mains best suited to manage landfill in a manner that protects the environment

Worldwide, there are calls for waste management service providers’ strategies
to include plans for alternatives to waste disposal at a landfill. EnviroServ sup-
ports these calls and offers a number of other service offerings as can be seen
in their service offering package.
Landfill management refers to the processes involved in the planning, design,
operation, closure and post closure of landfill sites otherwise known as waste
treatment and disposal facilities. It further includes the monitoring of incoming
waste streams, placement and compaction of waste, environmental monitoring
and continuous control measures.
Landfill managers worldwide are feeling the impact of new and more stringent
environmental legislation. As new information comes to the fore, legislation
governing the waste management industry changes and the industry has to
adapt. EnviroServ will continue to offer this peace of mind adhering to these
legislative changes by adopting their business model.
