Why Use a Licensed Waste Carrier?
Using a licensed waste carrier is not just a best practice — it is a legal requirement under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Businesses producing clinical waste have a Duty of Care to ensure their waste is handled by registered carriers and disposed of at authorised facilities. Failure to comply can result in significant fines, prosecution, and damage to your reputation.
A licensed waste carrier will provide you with waste transfer notes and consignment notes for every collection. These documents are your proof of compliance and must be retained for a minimum of two years. They should include details of the waste type, quantity, collection date, and the carrier's registration number.
