Waste carriers license

[Steve weightman]

Just had a read of the Gas engineer magazine and its on about the necessity to have a waste carriers license. Hands up anyone that's got one .

Me , honest .

Company I work for have one, but I bet alot of sole traders don't. I read a news article a few months back where a tradie got fined for transporting his lunch waste, he was told that because his rubbish was in a commercial rubble sack it fell under commercial waste which he didn't have a waste carriers licence for 😱.

But then I've also read that if you create the waste, then your allowed to transport it and that the waste carriers was for those who make a living off picking up others waste 😕

What the Damn is this world coming to? I’ll be glad when my time is up...

 

[Steve weightman]

Me , honest .

Good to see you have but can you see the sense of it the waste gets disposed of just the same

True story it doesn't change the way it's got rid of.

Another cash cow

In my eyes just encourages fly tipping

 

[Harvest Fields]

Yes mate I have one. Not long Renewed it.

 

[Steve weightman]

I've always got a bag in the back from all jobs that I put bits in but it's not affecting anyone just goes in the wheelie bin when it's full . Why take money to do this . Any waste will stay at the customers or I'll have to charge them to take it

This has been about for some time. I agree it’s ridiculous.
Bye the way, I did a boiler change last summer and hired a skip for rubble etc etc. It was left in the customers drive (private property) When I got there the next morning, the bl**d* thing was full😵
You can’t win🙁
