Why do I need a waste carrier licence? And how do I get one?

Your business needs to be registered as a waste carrier with the Environment Agency if you:

  • Transport waste that is produced by another business or householder
  • Transport any kind of building or demolition waste (eg plumbers, kitchen and window fitters, painter and decorators, carpenters or any business carrying soil or rubble)

Your business does not need to be registered as a waste carrier if you only carry waste that you have produced (i.e. by-products of your business activity unless it is any kind of building or demolition waste - see above). If you are a charity you can register as exempt with the Environment Agency

To register as a waste carrier or for further information contact the Environment Agency on 08708 506506 (ask for Authorisations).
