Our Commitment to Compliance
Environment Agency Standards
All waste carriers in the UK must be registered with the Environment Agency. We verify each provider's licence to ensure they meet regulatory standards before awarding our "Verified" badge. This means you can trust that any provider displaying our EA Verified badge has been checked against the official public waste carrier register.
Duty of Care
Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, businesses have a legal duty of care for their waste. Our directory helps you fulfil this obligation by connecting you with legitimate, licensed operators. We also provide resources and guidance to help you understand your legal responsibilities.
Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005
The Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005 control the movement and disposal of hazardous waste, including many types of clinical waste. Our verified providers are equipped to handle hazardous waste streams in full compliance with these regulations, providing you with the necessary consignment notes and documentation.
HTM 07-01 Guidance
HTM 07-01 is the Department of Health's guidance on the safe management of healthcare waste. It covers waste segregation, colour-coding, storage, collection, and disposal. All providers on our directory are expected to follow this guidance, ensuring that your waste is managed to the highest standards.
