Securing High-Risk Waste Sites

Security in waste management environments must go beyond the basics. These sites often span large areas, operate 24/7, and involve materials and equipment that are attractive to criminals. Amax designs site-wide solutions that protect assets, deter theft, and help ensure compliance with health, safety, and environmental standards.

We conduct a full risk assessment before installation and create a bespoke system that includes perimeter protection, controlled site access, and remote surveillance. Our systems are scalable and suitable for:

  • Recycling centres
  • Landfills
  • Waste-to-energy facilities
  • Hazardous waste storage sites
  • Vehicle depots and transfer stations

Each system is installed to the highest specification and is fully supported with ongoing maintenance, ensuring long-term site protection.

Integrated Systems for Total Waste Management Security

Our integrated security packages combine multiple technologies to form one cohesive defence strategy. We understand the complexity of modern waste operations and work closely with site managers to provide seamless solutions that don’t interrupt productivity.

A typical waste management security system may include:

  • Intelligent CCTV with thermal and motion sensors
  • Intruder alarms and out-of-hours protection
  • ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras at site entry points
  • Access control for vehicles, staff, and visitors
  • Fire detection and environmental hazard alerts
  • Remote monitoring and real-time alerts to mobile devices

Each component is chosen for durability, performance, and compliance, ensuring your site is fully protected under all operational conditions.

FAQs

Why is security important at waste management sites?

Waste sites often contain high-value machinery, hazardous materials, and large perimeters that are difficult to monitor manually. A tailored security system helps prevent theft, ensure safety compliance, and manage unauthorised access effectively.

Can CCTV systems operate effectively in challenging outdoor conditions?

Yes. We use CCTV systems with features such as thermal imaging, infrared night vision, and weatherproof casing to ensure reliable performance in harsh environments, day or night.

Is it possible to monitor multiple waste sites from one location?

Absolutely. Our systems are designed to be scalable and centrally managed, allowing site managers or security teams to monitor multiple locations from a single, integrated platform.

Do you provide maintenance for installed systems?

Yes, we offer comprehensive maintenance packages to keep your system running smoothly. Regular servicing, software updates, and 24/7 support are available to all clients.
