Why choose GICMD
Start with the work your staff will do.
The right collection model depends on volume, space and the time involved in managing waste. Tell us how the facility operates. GICMD builds the proposed pickup arrangement around those conditions, giving you a practical service scope to approve before changing the routine.
Keep differences between sites visible.
A small satellite clinic and a busy treatment centre may not need the same frequency or containers. Bring us the complete facility list. We confirm the service we can offer at each address and put the proposed work into a clear scope, without assuming one collection pattern suits every location.
Give collection a clear administrative finish.
For an agreed GICMD program, your owner follows through on manifests, service history and invoice questions. The service relationship continues beyond the physical pickup. You get a collection routine your team can use, backed by clear ownership of the follow-up.
Decide the collection model before the changeover.
Keep current arrangements active until the replacement service is confirmed.

Questions before you switch
When should we consider pickup instead of mailback?
It is worth assessing when volumes, storage or staff workload make a planned collection routine attractive. Share your current process so we can assess the pickup fit.
Can different sites have different needs?
Yes. Send each address and waste profile. We review the proposed service at each location rather than assuming one routine fits all.
What should happen to unused mailback materials?
Keep them within the existing supplier's agreed arrangement. Account for remaining materials before changing the collection routine.
See whether a GICMD pickup plan fits your sites.
Share the addresses and current service model. We will confirm fit before putting a proposal together.
