We also offer a sack collection service if you are unable to accommodate a bin on your premises. Sacks are charged on a pay-as-you-go basis.
What is it?
Every business has a legal requirement to ensure the safe collection and disposal of that it produces. To comply with section 34 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 businesses must take steps to:
- Prevent harmful treatment or deposits of waste
- Prevent escape of waste from its control
- Ensure any person or company you transfer waste to has appropriate authorisation to carry and dispose of waste
- Provide accurate descriptions of any waste that is transferred
How can we help?
As part of our service to you, Wyre Forest Business Waste can provide you with an annual Waste Transfer Note. This document ticks all the legal boxes and ensures you fulfil your Duty of Care.
- You need to keep the Waste Transfer Note for a minimum of two years
- Make sure you check all information is correct before you sign it
- Be prepared to produce your Waste Transfer Note ready for an inspection
Failing to meet Duty of Care requirements is a criminal office and you could be prosecuted.
What am I not allowed to do?
As a business, you cannot do the following:
- Take commercial waste home and dispose of it as domestic waste
- Take commercial waste to a household waste disposal site
- Allow an unauthorised person to collect your waste without providing a Waste Transfer Note
