The Challenge
A national leisure network needed more than a waste collector — it needed a partner
Founded in 1901, The Camping and Caravanning Club (CCC) is one of the world’s oldest and largest communities for camping enthusiasts. Today, it has over 750,000 members and 90+ sites spread across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Managing waste across a network of that scale — one that changes shape with the seasons, spans four nations with differing regulations, and involves remote sites with restricted service windows — demands a partner with both the reach and the flexibility to keep pace.

The Approach
End-to-end waste management, built around the realities of high-footfall holiday environments
Since 2010, Countrystyle has provided the CCC with a fully managed waste solution covering a broad mix of waste streams: general waste, mixed recycling, glass, paper and cardboard, food and wet waste, sanitary and offensive waste, hazardous ad-hoc collections, and septic and cesspit operations.
National fleet coverage
In the South East, collections are handled directly by Countrystyle’s own fleet — ensuring the highest service standards where operational control matters most.
Vetted subcontractor network
Across the wider UK, Countrystyle draws on a network of 55+ approved subcontractors, each audited through a rigorous SHEQ process to ensure consistent standards from the Scottish Highlands to the Welsh valleys.
Dedicated account management
A single dedicated Account Manager provides one point of contact with full oversight of the entire national operation — removing complexity from the CCC’s facilities team.
Seasonal operational agility
With 90–97 sites in scope depending on season, maintaining service continuity requires genuine operational agility — adapting collection schedules and resource deployment as demand fluctuates.
"The team at Countrystyle are a joy to work with. Always friendly and approachable with a can-do attitude. They will research and source anything the site requires, keeping me informed throughout the process. Thank you for your hard work and commitment to providing waste solutions that work for us."
