Hazardous waste disposal regulations for businesses
Hazardous waste carries strict legal duties. Under the Hazardous Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2005 you remain responsible for the waste from the moment it is created until it is finally recovered or disposed of, even after it has left your premises. That responsibility covers correct classification, safe segregated storage, transfer only to an authorised carrier, and accurate record keeping for three years.
We take the collection burden off your team. Our ADR trained drivers handle the loading, and every movement is documented with a hazardous waste consignment note returned to you once the receiving site has confirmed receipt of the waste.
Typical clients include manufacturers, laboratories, universities, hospitals, garages and bodyshops, print and coatings companies, facilities management providers and construction contractors. Whether you need a one off clearance of legacy chemicals or a scheduled weekly oil collection, the same compliance standard applies.
Common questions about hazardous waste disposal
What is hazardous waste?
Hazardous waste is any waste that is harmful to human health or the environment. In the UK it is identified by the List of Waste, where hazardous entries are marked with an asterisk, and by hazardous properties known as HP codes. Common examples on commercial sites include waste oils, solvents, laboratory chemicals, paints, aerosols, batteries and contaminated packaging.
Do I need a consignment note?
Yes. Almost every movement of hazardous waste in the UK must travel with a hazardous waste consignment note. The producer completes the premises and waste description, the carrier signs the transport declaration, and the receiving site confirms the fate of the waste. Producers must keep the records for three years. We complete and return the note for every collection.
Do you collect small quantities?
Yes. We collect anything from a single 25 litre drum or a box of laboratory smalls through to bulk tanker loads and complete site clearances. Small quantities are consolidated onto scheduled routes to keep the cost sensible.
Which parts of the UK do you cover?
We cover the whole of the country. Collections are available across England, Scotland and Wales, wherever your site is.
