Overview
You must identify and classify your waste before you send it for recycling or disposal. This makes sure you or anyone handling your waste deals with it properly.
There are also special rules in place for dealing with hazardous waste or disposing of waste with a high level of persistent organic pollutants, (POPS) also known as “POPS Waste”.
Filling in waste transfer or consignment notes
You must describe your waste in the paperwork you give your waste contractor. This must include:
- the waste classification code, also referred to as LoW (List of Waste) or EWC (European Waste Catalogue) code – classification codes for common types of waste are in the relevant parts of this guidance
- whether it’s hazardous or POPs waste
- the type of premises or business where the waste was produced
- the name of the substance or substances
- the process that produced the waste
- a chemical and physical analysis of the waste and its components
- any special problems, requirements or knowledge related to the waste
