A GUIDE FOR KBB INSTALLERS - REMOVING WASTE FROM CUSTOMER SITES

If you remove waste from your customer’s property you must be licensed by the Environment Agency or SEPA to do so. Failure to register as a waste carrier means you are operating illegally.

When you carry out an installation or repairs work at a client’s property and create waste, other than hiring a skip or using a man & van waste carrier, what is the law and best practise if you take it away yourself? Jason Mohr, CEO of bulky waste collection specialist AnyJunk (www.anyjunk.co.uk), summarises the relevant waste legislation and sets out how to stay within the law. 

Don’t risk it

When it comes to waste, take time to carefully consider your operations. Operating outside of the law isn’t worth the risk. Note this is a summary article. Read the full article here.

There are two types of waste carrier license – lower tier and upper tier. However, whether you register for a lower tier or upper tier license makes little financial difference, so if in doubt – register for Upper Tier.
