Q: Does my business need a Waste Transfer Note/Duty of Care? Yes, businesses in the UK are generally required to have a waste transfer note (WTN)for each load of non-hazardous commercial waste that leaves their premises. This document is a legal requirement and helps ensure proper waste management and disposal practices. Q: Is my business allowed to throw batteries in the bin? No. You should not put batteries in a general commercial waste bin. Batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries, can pose a fire hazard and should be recycled separately. They contain hazardous material and valuable resources that can be recovered through proper recycling. Please let us know should you require costs for bulk battery disposal. Q: What is the environmental charge (EC) on the invoice? The Environmental Compliance charge is an Annual Fee for the administration of your account and includes the issue of Duty of Care certificate. Q: Why do I have more than one invoice? Should the service started mid-month, their 1st invoice will include separate charges per month, such as the monthly service charge, along with any delivery costs, the EC. Any excess weight charges are carried to the following month’s invoice.
