Trade waste

What is Trade Waste? 

Business, commercial or trade waste can be defined as waste from premises used wholly or mainly for the purposes of a trade or business or the purpose of sport, recreation, education or entertainment but not including; agricultural or industrial waste. 

This also includes refuse from gardening and building work carried out on a domestic property, if the person carrying out the work is not the homeowner.

How do I dispose of Trade Waste?

It is illegal to dispose of Trade Waste in your household waste bin or at the Household Reuse and Recycle Centre at Kimpton Park Way. 

If work is being carried out at your property, ask for the person or company carrying out the work to arrange for any waste to be removed.
