Business and commercial waste
Overview
You must deal responsibly with any waste your business produces. This is known as your 'duty of care'. Business waste includes any waste that comes from:
- construction
- demolition
- industry
- agriculture
- any commercial activity - including any you run from your home
Your duty of care lasts from the moment the waste is produced to when it's received by a business that is authorised to deal with it. For example, a registered waste carrier or waste transfer station.
