Business rates do not cover the cost of removing waste from your premises.

Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, businesses are responsible for making sure their waste is collected and disposed of legally.

Simpler Recycling

Simpler Recycling regulations require businesses to separate recyclable materials from their general waste.

What your business needs to do

Businesses must arrange separate collections for the following types of waste:

  • Glass, metal and plastic
  • Paper and cardboard
  • Food waste

These requirements apply to businesses, healthcare establishments and educational institutions.

Small businesses with fewer than 10 full-time equivalent employees are currently exempt from these requirements. However, they will also need to comply when the exemption ends.
