quote''
if this waste is placed into the customers' domestic waste bin, which is highly likely, then technically an offence is being committed under the illegal deposit of waste''

thats where they come unstuck because you can put virtually anything in your own bin that is not prohibited!. like i said its their property and they will have to arrange collection.

Will only be able to find out tomorrow, when I get to office, but will put it up ASAP.

Can't I pay yearly? What if I go bust in 14 months? I've spent & wasted money!

 

[GasmanxxxR1]

They had something in plumbing and heating monthly a few months back that said you did not require one if its your rubbish you've created in your daily job. I'm sure others will comment on this.

This means you dont need the scrap brokers license, you still need the carriers license

 

[townfanjon]

rocketman, just look at what you have started !! lol

 

[rocketmanbkk]

I just registered as a lower tier licencee.

I only carry my own business waste.

Doesn't need renewing and FREE!!

 

[Nostrum]

You need the higher tier, did you go through the form to see which you need? I even phoned them to check.

This waste licence is a disgrace

Let's be honest. None of us fly tip most of us have sign written vans and handle wast correctly ie it goes in a skip or in an estate down the tip. Scrap is worth money so we certainly won't be dumping that down a country lane and yet it's scrap that they pick up on. Both the people pulled up by ea have been pulled up on a back of copper or a ball valve. Even nomadic caravan dwellers aren't going to tip that down a lane! So what's the point in this licence it's a tax on the people who handle their waste correctly to subsidise the local governments short comings in tracking the minority that do fly tip ie it pays to clean up others mess!

Besides when they open the van doors it's art I've just sold it to a gallery uptown I called it "the builder"

Agree, it's a complete disgrace and so transparent.
Once upon a time this kind of exploitation would have me frothing at the mouth but there's a new government backed scam every week and I can't keep up. Either accept that adding these expenses to your overheads will price you out of work or accept its going to eat into your earnings.

Yep. That ^^^

Its hardly worth running a business these days. Sometimes I think that all the small businesses and self employed people should just give it up for a year, and see if the country can survive on multinationals and the public sector.

Oh - hang on, who would pay the feckin' bills?

isnt that what Leigh park residents were renowned for doing anyhow ray, except some of them never worked for 30 years!!!!!!!!!!

stani did you get a chance to have a look at the price ? thanks

 

[stani]

Sorry Northstar, forgot will be on the case first thing.
seems to be getting more and more forgetting,
went into plumbs yesterday for a greenstar timer, walked out after a chat, clock still on counter, got to first job, looked all over van then got call it's still there!
senior moments!

 

[stani]

Sorry it took so long lads but had to recheck, it appears we pay around £120 per year for our waste license, this may be because we have a yard and a skip in it, and we transfer our rubbish from the vehicles into the skip on our own site, trying to find more information on this.

As redsaw said, if it never leaves the customer's house with you, there's no problem. Fine for small/medium jobs. Might make them grumble if it's a boiler or a bathtub.
