conversely, as low at 9% (RENTAL, HIRING AND REAL ESTATE SERVICES). Office-based industries attain a recycling rate up to 57% (but sometimes much lower), largely due to paper recovery. There is likely to be additional opportunities for improving recovery in these divisions (e.g. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AND SAFETY, FINANCIAL AND INSURANCE SERVICES, RENTAL, HIRING AND REAL ESTATE SERVICES). The high waste generation divisions are: Retail trade and Accommodation and food services which together account for about half of all C&I waste considered for this study. The Manufacturing division produces a significant amount of waste overall and has good recycling across a very diverse range of sub-divisions.
