Hazardous Waste Regulations Information - Premises Notification

Hazardous Waste Regulations - Premises Notification

From July 16th 2005 the Special Waste Regulations was repealed and the UK adopted The Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005. All sites producing hazardous waste should have pre-registered with the Environment Agency on or before 16th July 2005.

Certain types of premises will be exempt from this requirement if they produce less than 500 kg of hazardous waste per annum. This includes offices, shops, agricultural premises, residential homes, universities, schools, hospitals, prisons and surgeries. 500kg equates to 25 small Televisions; 35 lead acid batteries; 1,250 fluorescent tubes or 12 small domestic fridges.

If you have not yet registered (you can still register but it will take at least 4 weeks from submission which means you will not be able to dispose of your hazardous waste during this period) we can register your premises for you. This can be done electronically for a cost of £30.00 or by post for £35.00. Please complete the online form and we will then invoice you on receipt and provide you with your unique premises code.
